The antique planes will be in teams representing different countries, covering approximately 8,000 miles and flying over a number of nations. One of the stops will be at the Giza Pyramids, the first time in several decades that a group of planes are being allowed to land.   

Also joining the trip on part of the journey will be the plane flown by Robert Redford, in the movie " Out of Africa ." 

Flying on vintage aircraft and tackling a new route will not only be a challenge but an adventure.
