Research: Zen pilot: Choose faith over fear

When Zen pilot Robert DeLaurentis set out to circumnavigate the world pole-to-pole, it was about more than daredevil feats, setting records, or the book he’ll write about it. Before taking off in 2019, DeLaurentis told me that by flying the world and interviewing its inhabitants, he hoped to illustrate the oneness of humanity. To witness our common connectedness, to promote peace.
