Inspired by his first flight and his uncle and grandfather - both aviators - flying was a passion that dominated his childhood. It was no surprise to his friends and family when Ryan, at the age of 15, became Australia's youngest aviator.In Born to Fly, Ryan recounts his remarkable journey of becoming the youngest pilot in history to fly solo around the world.
