About James Ketchell
James is a serial adventurer, motivational speaker and Scouting ambassador.
On 1st February 2014, James became the first and only person to have rowed across the Atlantic Ocean, successfully summited Mount Everest and cycled 18,000 miles around the world.
Seven years prior to all this, he was recovering from a serious motorcycle accident that left him with broken legs as well as a severely broken and dislocated ankle. The prognosis was that he was likely to suffer a permanent walking impairment and would certainly not be able to continue the active physical lifestyle he had enjoyed up to that point.

In the words of Gary John Bishop "What happened to you when you were nine doesn't define you. The bagel you had this morning for breakfast doesn't define you... You're defined by what you're about to do." James, you've shown me and many others what's possible by getting up, and getting in action. So great. I have thoroughly enjoyed your journey, and good job supporting the great causes you're supporting. I've been enthralled with gyroplanes for a few years, you've further fueled that. As soon as I complete my IFR, I'll do my gyro rating. Thank you!

[@chrisa7237]

After seeing your videos, I'm going to take advantage of the huge Gyro community here in Pasco County, FL, and get involved with rotorcraft flying! I'm a fixed wing guy, but my first love has always been rotorcraft! Thank you and God Bless you for your willingness to reach for the unexpected!!

[@r7eagle_]

Welcome home. I am so glad you made it. I talked with you at the EAA convention in Wisconsin. I was the one who flew one of the original Benson BM8 Gyros with a 90HP Mac engine. I envy your trip and would love to do it myself. Every time you took off my heart rate picked up as if I were sitting in the cockpit with you. Someday I hope I can meet you AGAIN.

[@andrewwilson8317]

Well done mate. I was engineer for Global Eagle in 2002 when we broke the world record for longest flight from lands end to John o groats and the unfortunately terminated attempt to fly around the globe. I knew it could be done.

[@fredblair4307]

great job

[@LouisLupz]

Respect!!

[@terryteed1903]

Well that bloody sucks balls. I've missed the whole thing. I will go back to the start and watch it from the start. I'm only just down the 303 from you.

[@servicarrider]

An enclosed cockpit and cabin heat would be a must for this old bird.

[@ModernMountainLiving]

So Awesome! I have been watching the last few months. I don't even know you but I was saying YEAH! when you were coming in. Big Day for Gyros Too. Will you donate the machine to a Flight Museum? Congratulations from Colorado!

[@james-williambraithwaite1095]

IDE love to the flight path superimposed on a Gleasons Equidistant Map....should be awesome ‼️‼️😉👊🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@DrewMechen1]

James. from our conversations at Belvedere House to see you completing the task, you're amazing mate!

[@JKpushinglimits]

Thanks chap

[@willstadnyk5937]

C-O-N-G-R-A-T-U-L-A-T-I-O-N-S👍👍 What an epic journey and thank you for letting us tag along!! All the very best! (one question I have, would it have been possible to have an enclosed cockpit or would that not be feasible?).

[@olehippy13]

I like your videos... but I was wondering why you don't have an enclosed cockpit?

[@andrewmorris3479]

An amazing feat. Congratulations! How did the 914 perform for you on this remarkable trip?

[@drumaganger]

explain your back seat set up. I want to fly cross country in a duel seat.

[@livingladolcevita7318]

well done mate , nice suit where did you get it from?

[@chrisstockdale2667]

Would you ever think about taking a group around the world?

[@Mike-nj4qw]

Hi James amazing achievement!how many hours on the Hobbs did you finnish on?

[@jonfife3637]

How about a summery of your around the world trip. Cost, why an open gyro and not a enclosed, scariest moment, funniest moment...etc

[@wonderingsoul9890]

Do it again but the southern hemisphere.

[@dankardas]

Great videos! Are you the first person to fly a gyro around the world?

[@virginiahansen320]

Congratulations! Next be the first to fly a gyrocopter over the North Pole!

[@hughmacmann9022]

👍🏼👍🏼

[@mindlessconsumer]

Well done! Now do it in an electric aircraft!

[@grimmer2005]

WHY Not a roof on the gyrocopter?!

[@admustvelchr3418]

Good 1‼️

[@adamdaulana5332]

What I see is talk and talk and talk, I was hoping for adventurous flying scenes

[@ik04]

The cameraman was chewing gum... Annoying!

[@JAde-tm1yb]

Stop saying the world and say the western world because that's what you did. The top half not the bottom half with the greater land mass.
