Balloonist Fossett heads across Atlantic in Solo Spirit
Millionaire adventurer Steve Fossett continues his attempt to circle the Earth nonstop by balloon. He travels over the Atlantic about 300 miles east of Bermuda at 9 am CST aboard the 150 foot Solo Spirit, enduring chilly conditions and minor heater issues as ground control monitors progress from Loyola University Chicago. Fossett, speaking from the capsule, remains optimistic while Fondo project staff report his speed around 60 knots at 18,400 feet, with plans to reach Portugal or Spain by Friday and arc toward France, Denmark, Poland, and Belarus, weather permitting.
