How long a take-off run did a Solent require? There doesn't appear to be too much space between Tower Bridge and the curve of the river at Rotherhithe...
I suppose if the 'boat was light with a good head-wind it would make the difference, even so, well done the pilot for getting it up in the space available!

Edit to put correct name of aeroplane in.
