'Buzz Lightyear' paractises flying on a Porsche
An Austrian jumped out of a plane in Dover, UK today and using a pair of carbon-fibre wings flew over the channel to France. He reached speeds of 200mph and crossed in about 7 minutes before deploying his parachute to land. He tested his wings by strapping himself to a Porsche in Salzburg airport.
