The FAI has designed a badge to be awarded to pilots who have flown around the world. This was our co-founder Hans Gutmann's idea and something he has been working on all year with Art W.Greenfield of the NAA . The regulations for applying have been changed several times and also the FAI Site is continuously re-organised, so finding things on this Site has become a nightmare. By the time you read this page, the links below may have been changed again...and may not work at all........


Obtaining the badge depends on the pilots themselves presenting the relevant information to their FAI representative or their National Aero Club.
The "badge" is now called the "Circumnavigator Diploma".

Rules for the diploma are available at this NEW address:

IMPORTANT: Pilots interested in the FAI Circumnavigator badge, MUST optain a FAI Sporting Licence from their National Aero Club BEFORE the start of the flight.
