Lachlan has landed at Biggin Hill

I have just spoken to customs at Biggin and Lachlan has landed having flown direct single pilot from the Azores today.

It appears to me no one is interested in this 18 year old record breaking guy because he is not making a song and dance about his exploits.

However the fact remains tonight he has become the youngest person to have ever flown solo from Australia to the UK.

He also now holds the record for youngest pilot to ever fly across the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans.

You are a true inspirational pilot and aviator Lachlan
