The American teenage pilot is being held on a small island in Antarctica

An American teenager was detained on Antarctica, which creates a great delay in his attempt to fly his small plane to every continent by more than a million people.

The Chilean authorities arrested Ethan Qah, 19, after he presented a false flight plan, according to the American CBS News partner in the BBC.

In a statement, the General Chilean Directorate of Civil Aviation said that his deviation from that plan was “stimulating alert protocols.”

Mr. Guo was held after landing on the King George Island, home to a number of international research stations and its employees, as July temperatures remain usually less than freezing.

The Guo’s Small Cessna 182 plane took off from Punta, near the far south of Chile, and headed to the island off the Atlantic Coast, which is demanded by Chile. It was named after King George III in England.

He was detained at Tinent R. Marsh.

He claimed that Mr. Qah has made a plan to travel over Arenas Punta, but not after that, according to the regional prosecutor Christian Christo Revo, as mentioned by CBS.

He was charged with violating two articles of the country’s aviation law, including an article that could lead to short -term prison.

In the statement, the Chilean Civil Aviation General Directorate said that Mr. Qah has also violated the Antarctica Treaty, which regulates international relations with regard to the unmanned continent.

Mr. GUO posted an update on X on Wednesday, saying: “I’m alive to everyone, I will update soon.”

Ethan Qah transported his plane in Cesana to all the other six continents on his journey that extends for more than 140 days, according to his taste on social media.

He hopes to become the first pilot to complete individual flights on all seven continents in the Sena plane, and at one time it aims to raise one million dollars (731,000 pounds) for cancer research at St. Jude Hospital for Child Research.
