EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we witness the determined duo of Richard Branson and co-pilot Per Lindstrand as they prepare for their third attempt at a daring journey across the Pacific Ocean. The year is 1990, and amidst the picturesque backdrop of Southern Japan, these fearless adventurers are about to embark on an audacious mission: to traverse a staggering 6,200 miles in just two days using nothing but a balloon. Richard Branson, renowned business tycoon and founder of Virgin Group (although not mentioned here), joins forces with Lindstrand, an experienced aviator. Together, they stand beside their innovative creation - a capsule that will serve as their vessel through the vast skies. This extraordinary feat combines elements of air travel and ballooning; it symbolizes both ambition and ingenuity within the aviation industry. As we delve into this snapshot from history's pages, we can't help but marvel at the determination etched upon Branson's face. His eyes gleam with unwavering resolve as he gazes towards America - his ultimate destination. With each previous attempt having fallen short, one can only imagine the mix of anticipation and trepidation coursing through their veins. Bill Rowntree skillfully captures this pivotal moment in time – a testament to human perseverance against all odds. As we reflect on this remarkable image from Memory Lane Prints' collection, let us celebrate these trailblazers who dared to dream big while defying conventional boundaries in pursuit of adventure above the clouds.
