I don't come here very often (first time ever, while trying to find somewhere to post this).

There is a guy on his way across the english channel now in a pedal powered airship.

Doesn't seem to be as well publicised as Yves Rossy and his jet wing, but good luck to him.

Its advernturers like these guys who make (made) it possible for us all to do what we enjoy.

I thought Airship drank scotch.

But it figures he'd choose a route that tracked away from the United States.
