Ukusuka eSlovenia, ilizwe elikuMbindi Yurophu ekudibaneni kweAlps kunye neMeditera, ngoJanuwari 8 2012, inqwelomoya yokukhanya kweVirus SW iye yaqalisa uhambo lweenyanga ezimbini emhlabeni jikelele.
NgoJanuwari 20, umqhubi wenqwelomoya uMatevz Lenarcic wanduluka eSan Marcos Muni, eTexas, emva kwe-1,690 yeekhilomitha (1,050 yeemayile), uya kumisa eCalexico, eKhalifoniya.
Inobunzima obuziikhilogram ezingama-290 (iiponti ezingama-640), le nqwelo-moya, esebenzisa isixa esincinci samafutha, yakhiwe ngumenzi waseSlovenia, uPipistrel, owaphinda waphumelela ibhaso leNASA leenqwelomoya ezonga amandla aphezulu. Inqwelomoya ye-Virus-SW914 ultra-light inokubhabha iikhilomitha ezingama-4,000 (2,485 miles) kunye neelitha ezingama-350 (iilitha ezingama-92) zamafutha kwaye ibhabha kakhulu kumphakamo weemitha ezingama-3,500 (iinyawo eziyi-11,483), apho ukusetyenziswa kwamafutha kusezantsi. Ngexesha lokubhabha, inqwelomoya iyakwazi ukwenza imilinganiselo yekhabhoni emnyama, eyona arhente inkulu yegreenhouse ecaleni kwecarbon dioxide, emoyeni. Oku kufundwa kuya kuba negalelo elikhulu ekuqondeni kwethu impembelelo yegreenhouse kwaye kuya kwenziwa kwiindawo ezininzi okokuqala ngqa.
Ukusuka eSlovenia, ukunqumla iAfrika ukusa kuMntla noMzantsi Merika kunye neAntarctic ukuya kutsho eOstreliya naseAsia, phezu kweMount Everest neIndiya nokubuyela ekhaya kwakhona, inqwelo-moya iqhutywa nguMatevz Lenarcic, isazi ngebhayoloji, umfoti, nomkhuseli wendalo. Kuhambo lwakhe lokujikeleza ihlabathi, uya kutyelela amazwe angaphezu kwama-50 aze abhabhe phezu kwe-ikhweyitha izihlandlo ezi-6, egubungela phantse iikhilomitha ezili-100,000 (iikhilomitha ezingama-62,000).
UMatevz Lenarcic uthe: “Ihlabathi alikho likhulu kwaye alinakonakala njengoko libonakala. Kufanelekile ukuyibona kuzo zonke iintlobo zayo. Iimeko zenyama ezenza ubomi babantu bube buthathaka kakhulu kwisijikelezi-langa sethu. I-substrate yokusinda kwethu inokulondolozwa kuphela ngabo bayaziyo. IGreenLight WorldFlight ibonisa uphuhliso olunokwenzeka lokucinga kwezizukulwana ezitsha - kude noloyiso olukhulu okanye impumelelo enkulu yetekhnoloji ngenjongo yokuthobela. Ikamva lilele kubungcathu, intsebenziswano nokulungelelana. Yiyo loo nto ndiza kusebenzisa inqwelomoya encinci, ekhaphukhaphu kakhulu neyona nto incinci yokusebenzisa amafutha kuhambo lokujikeleza isijikelezi-langa sethu ekukuphela kwayo.”
Ukhatshwa, engqondweni nasentliziyweni, yiyo yonke iSlovenia kunye neBhodi yabaKhenkethi yeSizwe. Kuyo yonke indawo umqhubi wenqwelomoya okhaliphileyo ehlala ngenqwelomoya yakhe ehambelana nokusingqongileyo, uza neminqweno emihle yabemi beli lizwe lihlaza nelamkelekileyo, kwaye ngakumbi, ilizwe elinyamekela iplanethi kunye nobuhlobo behlabathi.
Ungalandela umqhubi wenqwelomoya, uMatevz Lenarcic, ku-www.worldgreenflight.com apho iqela lakhe lihlala lithumela izimvo zakhe malunga nohambo kunye neefoto ezithatyathiweyo ngexesha lokuhamba ngenqwelomoya.

INTO ONOKUYITHATHA KWELI NQAKU:
- Ukusuka eSlovenia, ilizwe elikuMbindi Yurophu ekudibaneni kweAlps kunye neMeditera, ngoJanuwari 8 2012, inqwelomoya yokukhanya kweVirus SW iye yaqalisa uhambo lweenyanga ezimbini emhlabeni jikelele.
- Everywhere the brave pilot lands with his environmentally-friendly plane, he brings with him the best wishes of the citizens of this green and welcoming country, and especially, a country that takes care of the planet and global friendship.
- From Slovenia, across Africa to North and South America and the Antarctic and over to Australia and Asia, over Mount Everest and India and back home again, the plane is piloted by Matevz Lenarcic, a biologist, photographer, and nature protectionist.
