having just watched this amazing feat live on National Geo, crossed the channel from France to sunny Dover in 9min32sec.  

Well done to Yves Rossy a very very clever man.

He's a friend of a friend.  Very clever bunny.  When he was in the Swiss Airforce and my friend was a Ski Instructor he used to call him and tell him when he was going to be flying by that day.  My friend would then tell all the people in his ski class that due to them being so good in class that he had arranged for a fly by from the Swiss Air Force.  All would obviously think he was off his rocker, their tunes changed when at the appointed time, a couple of jets flew past and dipped their wings.

might be old hat but to see the historic event unfold live today,   and learn of this chaps past great achievements should be inspiration to everyone.  it was makes very interesting reading the NatGeo and his own Website.

Yves had flown the Alps previously, today was the first flight over the English Channel.

During part of the interview there was a reference to paragliders off BabaDag, in the future day trips to Rhodes?
