Pope Leo rides in helicopter cockpit during Peru trip

Pope Leo XIV shared a cockpit with pilots from the Peruvian Air Force during his tour of Latin America. Sharing the video to social media, the force said having the Pope join its pilots on Saturday was "an honour and an unforgettable memory". On Sunday, the pontiff arrived in Cusco, a southern Andes Mountains city that was once the heart of the Inca empire. There, the Pope visited an ancient Inca fortress, where he said religious traditions could help counter an age marked by "divisions, wounds, mistrust," stressing that faith should unite people and bring them together "in the light of faith and love." The Peruvian leg of his tour holds special significance for the Pope.
