US Teen Pilot Detained for Antarctic Landing
Ethan Guo, a 19-year-old American pilot and social media influencer, was detained by Chilean authorities after making an unauthorized landing at Lieutenant Rodolfo Marsh Base in Antarctica as part of his attempt to fly solo across all seven continents. Guo had filed a flight plan to remain near Punta Arenas, Chile, but diverted mid-flight to Antarctica without proper authorization, violating national and international aviation protocols. Prosecutors allege he provided false information to aviation authorities and endangered air traffic safety. Guo claims he encountered complications during the flight and was conducting an exploratory route. He must remain in Chile for up to 90 days while the investigation continues, though he is allowed to leave King George Island but not the country. Guo has been documenting his journey to raise $1 million for pediatric cancer research, amassing a large following on TikTok and Instagram.
