Who are we

Riccardo Mortara
Founder, Chief Pilot and Chief Training Officer

With 13,000 hours of experience, Riccardo Mortara is one of the most established professionals in his field. Aviation is in Riccardo’s blood. His father, Gregorio Mortara, was an Italian flying ace during World War II, who received the Silver Cross for his heroics.

In 1972, having completed university degrees in engineering, law and French, Riccardo began to fly, tutored by one of his father’s military colleagues.
Riccardo’s determination to set a circumnavigation record was no great surprise, given his competitive background. He used to play professional ice hockey for Italy’s national team and raced at the highest level in the World Rally Championship as a works driver for Volvo, beating many household names of the time.

Sporting achievement is a tradition in the Mortara family. His younger son, Edoardo, has won the prestigious Macau Grand Prix twice and was crowned Formula 3 Euro Series champion in 2010, and debuted in the DTM series in 2011. Edoardo currently continues to participate in prestigious racing events all over the world. Taking on the world speed record was another demonstration of sporting spirit and a ravenous hunger for challenge.
