What could possibly go wrong?
With only seven months of flying experience, Terry Davis set out to fly a light aircraft from England to Australia — a journey that, on paper, probably should never have happened.
What began as an ambitious idea quickly became something far more unpredictable.
From international airports and bureaucratic stand-offs to fuel shortages, language barriers, and moments where the engine didn't sound quite right, this is a journey told exactly as it happened — without polishing out the reality.
There are no filters here. No heroic gloss. Just long days, difficult decisions, and the kind of situations you only find yourself in by pressing on when turning back might have been the wiser choice.
Navigating across continents with basic instruments, unreliable weather information, and little more than determination, this is aviation at its most raw — where planning meets improvisation, and confidence is often tested against reality.
But somewhere between the chaos and the humour, the trip becomes more than just a route on a map.
It becomes something you have to see through.
A true story of risk, resilience, and the thin line between boldness and madness.
If you've ever wondered what it really takes to push beyond the sensible option — this journey will take you there.
