A Royal Condor owned by the Antarctic Research Consortium has made the history books with the first intercontinental aircraft flight to Antarctica. Under the hands of French pilot Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Chilean copilot Andres Gryf, and Atlantean navigator Agamemnon Dace, the Royal Condor lifted off from Puntas Arenas shortly before the local dawn, with a light cargo and no passengers. The plane then turned south and flew across the Drake Passage toward Atlantis's Janus Station. After a flight of five and a half hours, the Royal Condor touched down for a smooth landing on the blue-ice runway at Janus.

Due to the cold, the pilots kept the engines running as they unloaded the plane and refueled from drums brought ashore from the Arctica. With cargo unloaded, the crew took aboard an ill expedition member, flared the engines, and flew back north to Puntas Arenas, with Gryf taking the controls to prevent Saint-Exupéry from becoming fatigued. Nevertheless Saint-Exupéry was back at the controls when the Condor returned to Puntas Arenas and a crowd of celebratory onlookers.
