Tap title to read story
American pilot Ethan Guo, arrested in Chilean Antarctica in June for allegedly illegally landing, remains stranded despite having his case suspended. Guo, attempting a solo flight to all seven continents for charity, claims he landed due to engine failure and received permission. While charges were dropped, and he paid a $30,000 fine, Chilean officials refuse to allow his departure, citing various false reasons. Guo, who has been detained for over 40 days, wants to continue his fundraising mission for cancer research.
