Pope Leon XIV flew over the Andes in a Peruvian military helicopter to celebrate Mass in a remote mountain community. The trip allowed him to connect with locals from his former diocese. Due to the challenging terrain and limited time, air transport was chosen. The Mi-17 helicopter, capable of carrying 24 passengers, was part of a larger operation involving multiple aircraft for safety, especially after the Pope's recent lung surgery.
