  • Helga Duffy, aged 99, has become the world’s oldest wing walker after a flight strapped to the top of a small plane.
  • A wing walker is someone who performs stunts while standing, walking or moving on the wings of an aircraft during flight, usually while secured with safety harnesses.
  • She said she was not scared because she was too excited, and described the feeling as peculiar.
  • • She has raised more than £1,300 for an air ambulance charity that once carried a family member on her final journey.
