The famous Swiss solar power (Solar impulse) is the only one available for the first international flight to the Belgian capital of Belgium.

The group of pilots preparing to fly around the world for the first time with solar powered aircraft has officially announced their route.

Solar powered aircraft will depart for the first flight, with a round-the-world voyage from Abu Dhabi.

The solar-powered Solar Impulse has the same wingspan as a Boeing 747, but weighs only a small car.

Solar Impulse, the name of the plane, landed at Dulles International Airport outside the city of Washington at 12:15 PM Eastern Daylight Time, AP reported.

Currently, the longest record of 26 hours is in the Solar Impulse. However, scientists are planning to allow solar powered aircraft to fly around the globe for up to 20 days

According to a reporter in Geneva, Switzerland's first and only Solar Impulse has completed a transcontinental flight (from Europe to Africa and vice versa) with long distances.
