'Lawnmower man' completes epic Ireland - Africa flight

An Irish adventurer dubbed the 'lawnmower man' has become the first to fly from Ireland to Africa by paramotor writes Eoin English.

Oisin Creagh from Cork finally got a break in the weather this morning and took off from Spain, crossed the Straits of Gibraltar, and touched down in Morocco earlier with his lawnmower engineer-powered back-mounted propeller aircraft and parachute-style wing.
