A British couple is looking to set a world record this year by travelling from New Brunswick to England by balloon.
Deborah Day and Mike Scholes are hoping international borders will open by this summer to allow them to attempt their crossing from our Sussex to their home in Sussex, U-K.
This will be their third attempt as the pandemic foiled plans for the trip last summer, and there was a worldwide helium shortage in 2019, according to CTV.
If successful, Day would be the first woman to captain a transatlantic balloon crossing, while Scholes would become the first blind crew member on such a trip.
