Biography[edit]
Coming from a northern farming family from France, Fleury graduated from the Institut d’Études Politiques and became a lawyer and journalist in Paris.[1] In 1931, he made a report on the airline Toulouse-Santiago du Chili.[1] Passionate about aviation and the Compagnie générale aéropostale, he met pilots like Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Marcel Reine [fr], Henri Guillaumet and Jean Mermoz.[1] The latter will help him pass his pilot's license. He entered as head of the aeronautics section at Paris-Soir of which he will be a permanent correspondent in Brazil.[1] Fleury began a career as a company director and worked, between 1945 and 1978, for various companies, Société Louis Bréguet and Sud-Aviation as correspondent for the daily France-Soir.[1] He died 2 June 2002 in Rio de Janeiro.[1]
In 1938 he was awarded the Albert Londres Prize[2]
