Louisiana teenager flies single engine Piper around the world in 76 days
Just heard about this 18 year old who just set a record flying around the world in 76 days in a Piper Lance. A single engine airplane.
He did this to raise money for https://www.medcamps.org/ A camp to improve the health and wellness of people living with chronic illnesses and disabilities through unique recreational and educational camping experiences!!

He got stuck over there for a while because of weather. He picked a good plane to do it in too.
