Flight. It isn’t just the oldest dream of mankind. It is the
first and sole dream of a boy whose family lives in poverty and
social isolation on the Caribbean island of Dominica. And it is
the last dream of an adventurer and pioneer of the airways who used
to fly kings over the savannahs of Africa and the deserts of the
Arabian Peninsula. Together, the unlikely tandem will build their
own airplane to fly in the world’s biggest air show.
