Bl**dy Hell.
Just watching the Bleriot clip frightened me to death.
The pilot must have been exhausted after all those massive wing warp inputs.
Is it the same chap who tried to fly the channel but unfortuantely had to ditch?
Must have a big cockpit to have room for his pair!
No, the pilot in the clip is Michael Carlson from Sweden, and he acctually flew the whole distance across the channel in 1999, 90 years after Louis Bleriot’s flight.
I guess it would be fair to say that Michael is the most experienced Bleriot in the world,..ever! He has been flying his Bleriot at airshow all around the world for more than a decade, and he now actually got two Bleriot XI..!

….and another one!
Superb and with Raymond Baxter commentating! I was there and was wondering if it showed the P-38 crash?
