In 1998, Dassault Aviation decided to partner with the Rêves de Gosse association to offer children with disabilities the unique experience of flying in an airplane.
Founded in 1996 by the Les Chevaliers du Ciel association, the organization is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year. The Rêves de Gosse Tour has made it possible to organize more than 40,000 introductory flights in 230 different cities.
The 2026 edition will take place from May 15 to 23, beginning in the city of Narbonne. For each stage, approximately 30 aircraft will be deployed, supported by logistics tailored to the scale of the event: tents, booths, etc.
Our official team for 2026 consists of three pilots, including two from Istres. They organized the Salon Eyguières stage in collaboration with the association “Les Ailes Istréennes.” A crew made up of employees from Dassault Aviation Biarritz, known as “Xoriak,” is also participating in this event in a private capacity.
