See English Below 片目のサムライパイロット:前田伸二 彼は大学時代、交通事故で片目を失いました。 しかし彼が失ったのは視力だけではありませんでした。 生還した社会では「障害者」と呼ばれ、「パイロットになる!」という彼の小さい頃からの夢はおろか、社会に対する希望も同時に失いました。 失意の中彼は、生きていくことの意味さえ見失いそうになります。 絶望の淵から、彼は単身アメリカへ。 せめて航空の世界に身を置きたいと思った彼は、そこで一生の師となる Dr. Ed Wischmeyer と出会い、アメリカでは一定条件を満たせばパイロットになれる可能性があ ることを知ります。 そこから彼の夢への挑戦は再始動し、パイロットの資格を取得。現在は航空機メーカーで働きながら、自身も指導教官として後進のパイロット育成にも尽力 しています。 これは夢物語ではありません。 2021 年、彼の挑戦は新たなステージへ そして 2021 年、前田は新たな挑戦に挑みます。"Earth Rounder:アースラウンダー”。 日本人には聞き慣れないこの言葉。これは航空機(飛行機、 ヘリコプター、気球など)を使って地球を一周するパイロットの総称です。彼は新たな目標をこれに定め、2016 年から少しずつ準備を積み重ねてきました。 今回はアメリカを出発し、カナダ→イギリス→ヨーロッパ→エジプト→アラブ首長国連邦→スリラン→タイ→カンボジア →フィリピン→日本。そしてアメリカに戻る経路、所要日数およそ 3 ヶ月、飛行距離約 21,000Mile(39,000Km)に及ぶ壮大なフライトとなります。 彼はなぜ、飛ぶのか 前田が飛び続ける理由。それは「夢を持ち続ける大切さと、その難しさ」を伝え続けるため。そして子供たちとその周りの大人たちに、限りない可能性がこの世 界にはあるということを、自らの行動によって証明し、伝えていくためです。彼自身が、難しい状況下でも本当に小さな夢、希望を持ち続けていたことで、アメリカ では身体に部分的な機能不全があってもパイロットになることができるという「正しい情報」に出会い、教育を受けたことで夢を叶えることができました。 彼が働く傍らで 2008 年から始めた、辛く厳しい過去と挑戦をテーマにしたモチベーションセミナーは、2019 年の春には 100 回を超え、開催場所も現在在住の アメリカ・シアトルエリアだけでなく彼の母国である日本にまで広がっています。 メッセージを伝え続けていくためのフライト 彼が挑戦しようとしていることは、決して非現実的で無謀なことではありません。事前の緻密な調査と日々のフライトトレーニングなどの周到な準備によって、 彼は目の前にある挑戦をクリアするあと一歩のところまで来ました。「正しい情報の提供および教育」があれば”I’m possible!” であること。彼は"Earth Rounder:アースラウンダー” を成功させ、そのメッセージを更に強く訴える活動を続けていきます。 さぁ一緒にすごいことを この活動は彼が世界一周を達成するためでなく、彼が人々に訴えるメッセージをより強いものとし、より多くの人々に大きな夢と希望を与えるための活動です。 皆さまからお預かりしたご支援は、飛行機改修や寄港地での講演活動等のアースラウンダー成功の為に使わせて頂き、今後の活動をさらに盛り上げて参ります。 また、彼の挑戦に賛同してくださる皆さまのあたたかいお気持ちや想い、皆様のお名前を「搭乗者名簿」に記入させ、世界の大空を駆けめぐります。 皆さまのあたたかいご支援のほど、どうぞよろしくお願い申し上げます。 さぁ一緒にすごいことを 入金方法は日本語の説明文をご覧ください。 エアロジパングプロジェクトボランティア一同 Hello, World!!  In 2021 I will fly solo around the world and I will give you motivational speech for you in your country, I need your support!! My name is Shinji Maeda, and I am a one-eyed pilot from Washington state. You may say “what!! A half-blind pilot trying to fly around the world???? He’s crazy…. That’s a MISSION that *IS* IMPOSSIBLE!!”  It sounds like just another stunt that Tom Cruise should be doing, right? Well, I’m not crazy...mostly. And I’ve heard “IMPOSSIBLE” a lot in my life… Let me explain WHY I am making this flight and why you should be a part of it. I was born and raised in Japan. In 1998, I was involved in an accident…and I died...and fortunately I came back to this world somehow. In coming back, I lost my eyesight in one eye and that condition resulted in me being labeled “handicapped”, which meant that by law I could never pursue my dreams of working in Aviation in Japan, or teaching others to fly, or flying for the sheer joy of it. I was completely destroyed. I was told to accept my fate and I was treated as damaged, and less than whole. My future was empty and I was told it was empty by many. I had to find the strength inside me to take the word “IMPOSSIBLE” and change that word to “I AM POSSIBLE!” To achieve my dreams, I became a US citizen, I received a college degree in the US and pursued my aviation career. I became a pilot, and now a flight instructor, and I share my love of flight with student pilots everyday. I work for a large aircraft manufacturer and along the way I became a husband and father. &lt;Wife, Child Enter shot&gt; Everything that I’ve done has become POSSIBLE...but let me explain WHY this flight isn’t crazy...and WILL BE POSSIBLE…AND WHY YOU SHOULD BE A PART OF IT...BECAUSE IT ISN’T JUST A FLIGHT...IT IS A MISSION! While finding the inner strength to leave my family in Japan, and achieve my dreams,  I discovered that sharing my journey and encouraging and motivating others to achieve their dreams - especially young people -  became my other true passion. So “YOU ARE POSSIBLE” became my mission. Since 2008 I’ve been giving motivational speeches to thousands of young people in the US and Japan. I’ve flown to most of these talks on a commercial jet. This time will be different. I’ll be flying around the world and giving motivational speeches from here to your countries sharing this aviation experience. Impossible? NO, not at all! I AM POSSIBLE….and THIS IS POSSIBLE...but only with your help. This project is bigger than me, bigger than you, and will impact tens of thousands of people through VLogging, In person speeches, and promotional materials. This project will work because “WE ARE POSSIBLE” through your contributions. We will use all donations to our 501(c)3 non-profit for aircraft preparation and flight operations to get to as many presentations as we can while I fly around the world. And you will be flying with me in my heart. So thank you very much, and see you soon somewhere on this joyful earth. Let’s make this happen together. Shinji Maeda President Aero Zypangu Project NPO
