There's a YouTube channel by a young flyer called Matt Guthmiller I quite enjoy watching. There's a series of videos he recorded about piloting (and co-piloting) a Cessna 210 from the US to the UK (and beyond). This is the playlist (I think it's in the correct chronological order):

I think at some point in the journey they also needed to use oxygen because they needed to fly above 10000 feet. Looked like quite an adventure.
- sokoloff 8y agoFederal Aviation Regulations require the use of supplemental oxygen by required flight crew at a cabin altitude above 14,000 feet MSL or after 30 minutes above 12,500. (14 CFR 91.211).
- treahauet 8y agoHe set a world record for being the youngest pilot to circumnavigate the globe solo at 19. The record has been beaten since then, but what an accomplishment! He’s also an MIT student studying electrical engineering and computer science. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matt_Guthmiller#Solo_flight_around_the_world https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matt_Guthmiller#Solo_flight_...
- teh_klev 8y agoYes, of course, I'd completely forgotten about that achievement.
