Explorer David Hempelman-Adams sets off from Allegheny County Airport, Pennsylvania, on his record-breaking attempt to cross the Atlantic in a balloon with an open wicker basket. * The adventurer from Wiltshire is hoping to beat the solo world distance record of 5, 340 km (3, 337.5 miles) for the helium and hot-air balloon type on the dangerous crossing.
