Nice video, beautiful plane.

That’s pretty cool. I’ve flown and sailed across the channel. Flying is much better, even in an open cockpit flying lawnmower.

i have been underwater crossing it 4 times and it sucked, thank you SSN-668

I bet the Spadefish could “swim” the Channel faster than Bleriot could fly over it.
