Climb aboard for the true story of how Barrington Irving went from tinkering kid to towering pilot and flew solo around the world--breaking records as the youngest person and first Black man ever to do it. With maps, labels, lists, and cool backmatter, including news of what Barring Irving is doing today, this book soars. Buckle up! Sky-high dreams ahead.

Full color.
