Alam first announced his love for flying and aircrafts three years ago. However, after a lot of hard work and determination, the 42-year-old revealed in late September this year that he was now one step closer to achieving his dreams. He stated that he will be journeying across the globe as part of his project called Mission Parwaaz.

Last week, he was detained at the Russian airport as his visa had expired. However, the government officials from Pakistan got in touch with the Russian authorities to clear matters and get him another valid visa.
