UAE: Teenager attempts to break world solo flight record

Mack Rutherford, a British-Belgian 16-year-old, who is attempting to break the current world record for the youngest person to fly solo around the world, arrived in Dubai on Friday morning at the Jetex VIP Terminal.

Smiling confidently, the teenager who flew in from Muscat, walked into the lounge wearing a bottle green flight suit after ascending and repositioning his two-seater single prop ultralight aircraft and clearing immigration.
