Home! And no longer alone.
The 19-year-old Belgian-British pilot Zara
Rutherford set a world record as the youngest
woman to fly solo around the world, touching
her small airplane down in western Belgium on

“Go for it. It takes a lot of time, patience, a lot
of work, but it is incredible,” she said after an
adventure that gave her as many thrills as scares
