That’s the very first light aircraft I ever flew in and took the controls of! Amazing achievement!

Next they take a deaf guy to a Metallica concert

He is NOT flying the plane. He is being allowed to touch the controls while the plane is in flight. When he is the only one in the plane, let's see what happens. This video brought to you by the world of participation awards.

Why would you even want to fly a plane blind, you can't see anything. Just pick em up and fly em around like a kid, and done.

And Brits laugh at the US for letting a blind man own a gun. Lol.

This is so dangerous and stupid. There’s literally zero point in this.
