Captain Barrington Irving Jr. CD (born November 11, 1983) is a Jamaican-born American pilot who previously held the record for the youngest person to pilot a plane around the world solo, a feat he accomplished in 2007. He is also the first black person and first Jamaican to accomplish this feat. His aircraft, a Columbia 400 (Cessna Corvalis 400), is named the "Inspiration." It was manufactured and assembled by the Columbia Aircraft Mfg. Co. in 2005 using over $310,000 in donated parts, and is classified as a standard aircraft in the utility category.
