The Swiss daredevil who is attempting to be the first man to fly across the channel in a single-wing jet-propelled pack will make another attempt today, after yesterday's flight had to be cancelled because of weather conditions.
Clouds cleared at the coast today giving hope to the Swiss daredevil who hopes to cross the English Channel equipped only with a carbon-fibre wing and four miniature jet engines.
Yves Rossy aborted his bid yesterday after his look-out Stephane Marmier in Dover warned him of a dark cloud overhead.
Marmier, told The Times that conditions today are ideal. "Today it is perfect weather. If the wind stays like this it will be alright. If something changes maybe we start early."
