IATA - the scheduled international airlines trade body - is going to help out an experimental programme to fly an aircraft around the world, through the day and night, using only solar power. The Swiss-based Solar Impulse team is due to fly the aircraft in the last quarter of this year and make the global voyage in 2011.
