Multimillion Pound Prize for First Carbon Free Commercial Flight Across The Atlantic
Carbon Footprint Ltd has launched the world's first Freedom Flight Prize. The aggressively formulated competition is open to manufacturers, research/academic groups and inventors to design and fly a 100+ seater passenger aircraft powered by 100% renewable energy. The plane must complete a return trip from London to New York; each leg of the trip in under 10 hours and must finish the return leg within 24 hours of starting out on the round trip. The first to complete this historic flight will win the Freedom Flight Prize, which is expected to be in the £millions by the time the prize is won.
