Definitely, Jim. He flew over the Channel at a speed of 45mph at a height of 250 feet and took 35 minutes to do the 22 miles. At the time of his flight, Bleriot had a foot injury from a test flight accident as well.That's excellent Dave. Must have required great bravery to actually fly one.
Just a tiny bit slower than a Wasp then!!!Thanks everybody.

BTW, it takes a lot of bravery (of a different kind) to rig these thing too!
