“Connecting men and continents through air transport”. A hundred years ago, Pierre-Georges Latécoère envisioned an ambitious project. A small group of pioneers feverishly struck out on an incredible endeavor: a flight route from France to Africa and to South America.

This legendary route flew over ten countries on three continents – and it gathered legendary pilots such as Saint-Exupéry or Mermoz; it was the longest expedition at the time.
Nowadays, aviation history buffs and pilots take part in the Latécoère Raid – keen on reliving a common memory and legacy by covering all the stages of the old flight route. They thus hope to weave again that common thread between people and countries that the Aéropostale created – by delivering mail on three continents.
