Underwater
flight in the Super Aviator!
CLICK HERE FOR INFO
We're
excited to announce the debut of the Super Aviator, a one-of-a-kind
two-seat submersible designed to "fly" underwater, much the
way a fixed wing aircraft would. The Super Aviator features
the latest in underwater technology and allows you to witness
the wonders of the ocean without getting wet.

Breadalbane Under the Arctic Ice
Our exclusive partner, Deep
Expeditions Inc., has developed and operated extraordinary manned submersibles,
which are in scientific operation today. Used in this expedition are
the three-person Aquarius
and two-person Dual DeepWorker 350. Certified for deep
diving and piloted by experts who have led scientific expeditions during
the past 30 years, these submersibles are one-atmosphere (like living
on land), and have a capacity for up to 72-hour dives. Both have large
viewing spheres for a wide range of viewing, and communications systems
for a constant link to "mission control." They are inspected
annually and hydrostatically tested every five years.
