Book excerpt: In May 2007, Jennifer Murray (68) and her co-pilot Colin Bodill (57) set a new world record by becoming the first pilots to fly a round-trip from Pole to Pole - in a helicopter. From the searing heat of the Atacama desert in Peru, over the heights of the Andes and across the hostile southern oceans, to the unforgiving cold of the Antarctic and Arctic, Polar First tells the remarkable story of Murray and Bodill¿s journey into the record books - a journey which lasted 171 days, took in 26 different countries, and covered more than 33,000 nautical miles.
