Theodore Schneider
The friendship that had sprung up between the pilots of the Orbiter and Theodore Schneider during the ballooning adventure continued through their collaboration in Winds of Hope.
After sponsoring Bertrand Piccard and Brian Jones for their non-stop round-the-world balloon flight in Breitling Orbiter 3, Breitling remained at their side to found Winds of Hope and share their combat against this neglected disease of noma. Breitling is a recognized leader in the manufacture of instruments for measuring time, especially for use in aviation.
