Queensland Pilot Sets Glider Record in Australia

A Queensland pilot has made aviation history by flying 1,200 kilometers without an engine in a 10-hour glider flight launched from Alice Springs.

The record-breaking flight took place in Central Australia, where the pilot navigated the glider for an impressive 10 hours, covering more than 1,200 kilometers without any engine power. This achievement marks a significant milestone in aviation history for the region.

Alice Springs served as the perfect launch point for this historic flight, which tested the pilot's skills and the capabilities of modern glider technology. The distance and duration records are expected to stand for some time.
