Take a seat with us in the cockpit and watch in 360º as we fly the path of totality! Join us in the clouds as we cross into darkness and circle a few times to enjoy the view. Pilot: Clark Staggs
Airplane pilot Clark Staggs took to the sky Monday, August 21st to fly the path of totality during the 2017 solar eclipse. He and his family flew along below the eclipse and experienced the dark sky in a way no person on the ground could.
To capture this flight and the unique perspective they had, Clark agreed to mount one of my 360º cameras to the dash of his aircraft. Watch above as the sky transitions from light to dark and the radiant glow of the sun seems to disappear.
Special Thanks: Clark Staggs and Family
