A Blind Pilot Has Landed in Australia

Listen here

Miles Hilton-Barber is a man who loves an adventure.

He is also blind.

He did not let the fact that he cannot see prevent him from flying an airplane from London, England to Sydney, Australia – a journey of 13,500 miles.

He encountered cold temperatures and snowstorms during his flight, which he took with the help of a sighted co-pilot.

Hilton-Barber was able to raise over $2 million on his journey for a charity that helps other blind people.
