MackSolo Team Update – Day 134 ✈️ 🌍
This was Mack's arrival in #NEWYORK 🍏 and his crazy merry-go-round orbits near the🗽!!! It was btw a HUGE deal to be allowed to land between all the BIG BOYS ✈️ at #JFK 🙈 😅! Thank you John F. Kennedy International Airport - JFKfor this unique opportunity and Modern Aviation for helping it make happen!!! Thank you also to @bowenmaya, @lily.boww and @michaelrose18 for being the camera plane!
Mack has now landed at his 55th stop on his #solo around the world: #Montreal, #Sainthubertairport 🥳. These are the last legs of an #epic 5-month #journey, full of geo-political #challenges, technical #difficulties & random other #obstacles, such as food contamination and landing on an uninhabited island. But, this was his dream and he hung in there 💪!
And that is exactly the message he hopes to give youngsters: at whatever age, you can make a difference and achieve incredible things if you follow your dreams. For sure, it won't always be easy or smooth-sailing, but with #grit and #perseverance, you will get there in the end 💪.
Fingers crossed for smooth winds and safe flights all the way to his destination now.
