Les Citoyens du Ciel is an association that helps young people in difficulty or with disabilities to gain self-confidence by organizing, in particular, a solidarity air tour. “We offer ultralight flights to the beneficiaries of the associations at each of our stopovers in France to show that disability is not an obstacle. Thanks to flights, we encourage self-transcendence and it is also a way to democratize the practice of aerial sport among young people. With this operation we share our wings with flying clubs, for the benefit of unique people, ”explained President Jean-Paul Burgues.
Received by the Morlaix flight club, 22 members of the Citoyens du Ciel arrived at the end of the morning of Saturday 10 September to set up the reception of the 30 beneficiaries of the EMI of Les Genêts d’Or and of the Massé-Trévidy Foundation, and prepare flight plans. Starting from Toulouse on Sunday 4 September, Les Citoyens du Ciel has already made stops in Limoges, Saumur and Quiberon. After Morlaix, the next destinations are La Réole (33) and Montauban (82).
