It's with great sadness that we learned of the passing of our long-time close friend Hannes Arch, who has died in a private helicopter flight in Carinthia, Austria.
Hannes has been a Red Bull Athlete for over 25 years. The world mainly knew Hannes as an amazingly successful Red Bull Air Race pilot. This was only one of the ways in which his spirit found expression. In the Austrian's younger days, he was ranked as one of the world's leading mountaineers and climbers, and was one of the first aerobatic paragliders.
