New York, June 25 (RHC)-- A single-seater plane has successfully completed the first-ever solar-powered flight over the Atlantic.  The plane, the Solar Impulse 2, departed from John F. Kennedy International Airport early Monday and arrived in Seville, Spain, on Thursday after a 71-hour-and-8-minute journey.

Pilot Bertrand Piccard spoke with reporters after the successful flight.  He said: "The new world is the world of modern, clean technologies, the world of respect for the environment, the world of innovation, the world of pioneers.  We really hope that this flight symbolizes the flight from the old world to the new world."
