Starting to knock on wood as this project is going so well! I am slightly superstitious. As an old sailor I do not wisle onboard and black cats from left are bad news! Thursday I met the Hellenic Air Force. What a strong and numerous airforce! Just here on Crete I...

In the past couple of days, Johan posted a couple of really nice clips on YouTube, taken from the cockpit of the Moth. Take a look and get inspired to embark on your own adventure! Greece Island to Island Italian formation over the Adriatic...

What a day! Not all that complicated, but as of this morning I did not have a permit to land at Souda Airport at Chania, Crete. I was so fortunate to have the help of the Chania Aeroclub, and thanks to Mr Kosmas Kimionis, a permit magically popped up at about 10 a.m.!...

SAS own magazine has an extensive interview with Johan. Read more here!

It's International Literacy Day today, and of course I am thinking about the schoolchildren in Red Hill outside Cape Town who are involved in the Rotary charity project "Make Reading Cool"! Cape to Cape will donate all surplus from my crowdfunding campaign to Red...

Johan reports: Cremona is a small and very genuine Italian village. Spent yesterday evening with my friend Per who insisted in supporting not via FundedByMe but via paying for hotel room and dinner in the evening. Thank you Per! Works just as fine as his company came...

The Cape to Cape team is happy to report that Johan Wiklund's campaign on FundedByMe now has 37 backers. But it's far from finished. Help Johan reach his goals! Support Cape to Cape...

Amazing flight today, not high above as I usually do in SAS, but through, and sometimes it felt like between and below, the amazing Alps! Just as Gösta described it, the Alps are very impressive and almost a bit scary. The valleys are tight sometimes and the hilly...

After the very nice start in Copenhagen to the next phase of Cape to Cape, with plenty of well-wishers, family and friends, Johan had to deal with quite a bit of wind yesterday as he flew to Saarmund Airport outside Berlin. Today brought more less-than-perfect...

Johan, family, friends and the press gathered at the Lauritsen Terminal in Copenhagen today for interviews and to see him leave the Scandinavian portion of his adventure as he continued on to Berlin. Johan posed for cameras and answered numerous questions from...

The rainy weather looked to be a problem, but early this afternoon Johan took off from Barkarby Airfield outside Stockholm – just like his predecessor Gösta Andrée did in 1929. The Grand Adventure has begun! Johan will soon touch down at his home airfield in Eslöv...
