I'm not sure of the serviceability status of Bleriot's alternator when he crossed the channel...................
Sorry......Jet lagged sarcasm!
Seriously, as advised frequently here, just go.
Stay VMC, switch off the radio, stay well ahead of the a/c always with a mind for possible diversion airfields en-route, and marvel at the countryside (and sea!) passing you by.
The wings will stay on, and the donkey will continue to make noise with no electricity, I promise!!
Good luck (and enjoy the "adventure"!),
Jez
