Jorge Chavez Dartnell (January 13, 1887 – September 27, 1910), also known as Géo Chávez, was a Peruvian aviator. At a young age, he achieved fame for his aeronautical feats. He died in 1910 after a heavy wind broke the wings of his fragile airplane Blerlot XI, falling from a twenty meter height upon landing, after achieving the first air crossing of the Pennine Alps.
