French Adventurer Braces to Fly over Channel from Calais to Dover

A French ' adventurer, named as the  “flying fighter' who wowed France by taking off over “Bastille Day” festivities on a hover board, now intends to cross the English Channel on the 87mph contraption.

It is worth to mention that the French people celebrate the anniversary of storming the dreadful prison of the Bastille during the sanguine events of the French Revolution.

Innovator Franky Zapata needs to fly around 37 miles from Calais, on the French coast to Dover on the British tomorrow, Thursday, refueling most of the way over the water.

The trick will stamp a long time since French pilot Louis Blériot made the principal trip over the Channel in 1909, scooping a £1,000 Daily Mail prize.

He plans to make the intersection in around 20 minutes, like the time it takes for a fast train to go through the Channel Tunnel, despite the fact that he should refuel in transit.

To do that, he could arrive on a vessel to top off his tanks - in spite of the fact that it would not then consider a full Channel crossing.
