    Default Is it a bird.. Is it a plane

    No - it's a flying Frenchman on a hoverboard !
    Franky Zapata has made the first-ever successful Channel crossing on his jet-powered flyboard this morning - congratulations to a new pioneer of flight

    So cool! Having seen this on the news when it was demostrated for President Macron, I was wondering where he would go from there. Barry is right - what will be next?

    All the best,
