‘Lawnmower man’ flies paramotor from Ireland to Africa to raise funds for Gorta

Architect Oisín Creagh, from Cork, touched down in Morocco yesterday, after completing the last leg of his epic 3,000km flight, using his lawnmower engine-powered, back-mounted aircraft and parachute-style wing.
After days of waiting in southern Spain, he finally got a break in the weather and took off at dawn, yesterday, from a beach just north of the Rock of Gibraltar.
