The expedition involved a 3,000km paramotor flight from Ireland to Africa, and was a fund raising and awareness campaign in aid of Gorta - Self Help Africa , the International Aid Agency.
The trip undertook a unique and challenging un-supported paramotor flight from Ireland to the North Coast of Africa. This flight of approximately 3,000 kilometres involved a number of sea crossings, starting with the first between the North East coast of Ireland, to the coast of Scotland, near Stranraer, before working down through the UK to the Straights of Dover, and a crossing of the English Channel. This was followed by the flight down the length of France, across the Pyrenees, and down the full length of Spain, to Gibraltar. This was the final crossing before landing on the coast of North Africa.
The flight was one of the longest paramotor expeditions ever undertaken and will present a number of significant challenges on the way.
