Whidbey Wonders: Peace Pilot

Hear about pilot Robert DeLaurentis' mission of peace to fly from the North to South pole — two places on earth that haven't experienced war — in a 38-year-old refurbished twin-engine Turbo Commander 900 called Citizen of the World. Robert will share details about the numerous challenges he faced, emphasize the way we are all connected, and inspire others to pursue their dreams, however impossible they may be.

"Zen Pilot" Robert DeLaurentis owns the DeLaurentis Airport in Oak Harbor. He is a Gulf War veteran and was the first solo pilot to fly a Piper Malibu Mirage around the world (2015). He is the author of Zen Pilot, Flight of Passion and the Journey Within; Peace Pilot; and Flying Thru Life: How to Grow Your Business and Relationships with Applied Spirituality.
