Books By Brian Milton, Richard Meredith-Hardy - Author

BRIAN MILTON is an award-winning adventurer, journalist and aviation historian. He holds the Guinness World Record for the first circumnavigation of the globe in a microlight aircraft, achieved in 1998\. The flight earned him the Britannia Trophy, one of the world's greatest aviation awards. This achievement was even more remarkable given the fact that Brian survived a 250-foot fall while testing a prototype powered hang glider in 1978, which gave him a fear of flying.

He has been flying microlights since 1984, was twice World Microlight Champion and has held a variety of speed records. Notable flights undertaken by Richard include the first flight over Mount Everest in a microlight craft and a 12,500-mile journey from London to Harare in Zimbabwe - a flight not that much shorter than the one to Australia. In 2001, Richard was awarded the Gold Medal by the Royal Aero Club of the UK.
