Or so says Stephane Rousson, a 39-year-old Frenchman who's hoping to cross the English Channel in a homemade, pedal-powered airship. As a child, he was captivated by the Gossamer Albatross, the first entirely human-powered craft to fly the turbulent stretch from England to France. Hoping to repeat that 1979 feat, Rousson acquired Zeppy, a crank-driven zeppelin. Built originally by Jean Marc Geiser and his son Luc back in 1984, the craft's forward momentum and steering come from a pair of 10-foot movable propellers, churned by a recumbent bike hanging from the ship's belly; Rousson modified the chassis to improve its stability and power. He has logged more than 30 hours of flight time, including a four-hour hop around the coastal town of Toulon. But so far, no English Channel. The problem: Breezes over 5 mph bat the blimp around like a cat playing with a moth. Also, the heat of the sun raises the temperature of the helium in the Zeppy, which could cause it to explode. With the channel typically experiencing only three windless days a year, Rousson will have to time his five-hour, 34-mile flight perfectly. He plans to try again in September. Here's hoping the attempt doesn't go down like a lead balloon. *Rejected headlines: Big Blimpin', Keep Your Blimp Legs Strong, Blimp's My Ride ]]> Michael Moore to Release Next Movie, <cite>Slacker Uprising,</cite> for Free Online http://feeds.wired.com/~r/wired/index/~3/384369728/michael-moore-t.html Rain Clips Greenbird's Wings http://feeds.wired.com/~r/wired/index/~3/383732986/rain-clips-gree.html File Sharing Lawsuits at Crossroads, After 5 Years of Litigation http://feeds.wired.com/~r/wired/index/~3/383680841/proving-file-sh.html Abrams on 'Fringe': Science, Conspiracies and 'The Pattern' http://feeds.wired.com/~r/wired/index/~3/383680842/abrams-talks-fr.html Comcast Appealing FCC Throttling Order http://feeds.wired.com/~r/wired/index/~3/383640584/comcast-appeali.html Zoho Docs Unites Writer, Sheet and Show http://feeds.wired.com/~r/wired/index/~3/383609426/Zoho_Docs_Unites_Writer__Sheet_and_Show Share More Than Videos With YouTube's Data API http://feeds.wired.com/~r/wired/index/~3/383706999/YouTube_Tutorial_Lesson_2_-_The_Data_API Honda's Got Prius Envy http://feeds.wired.com/~r/wired/index/~3/383609429/hondas-got-priu.html Wired Science Podcast: Green Biodomes and Vegetarian Piranhas http://feeds.wired.com/~r/wired/index/~3/383678683/video-podcast-1.html New TiVo DVR Proves Bigger Is Sometimes Better http://feeds.wired.com/~r/wired/index/~3/383632826/review-tivo-hd.html Cancer Research Heads Down New Pathway http://feeds.wired.com/~r/wired/index/~3/383618735/war-on-cancer-g.html Science Proves Exotic Cars Turn Women On http://feeds.wired.com/~r/wired/index/~3/383590838/weve-got-some-b.html UPlayMe Says BYO Music to This Social http://feeds.wired.com/~r/wired/index/~3/383590839/major-label-see.html Experimental Breast Cancer Test Looks Promising http://feeds.wired.com/~r/wired/index/~3/383347778/MED_BREAST_CANCER Who the Heck Raps About Particle Physics? http://feeds.wired.com/~r/wired/index/~3/383343688/ODD_PARTICLE_PHYSICS_RAP 5 iPhone Applications That Replace Your Tools http://feeds.wired.com/~r/wired/index/~3/383493721/five-iphone-app.html Sarah Palin's Campaign Debut Electrifies the GOP, Galvanizes The Twitterati http://feeds.wired.com/~r/wired/index/~3/383196701/sarah-palins-ca.html Sept. 4, 1957: Short, Unhappy Life of the Edsel http://feeds.wired.com/~r/wired/index/~3/382945101/dayintech_0904 Security Matters: How to Create the Perfect Fake Identity http://feeds.wired.com/~r/wired/index/~3/382945102/securitymatters_0904 Audio-Enhancing Mini-Amp, New Palm Treo Pro and More http://feeds.wired.com/~r/wired/index/~3/382815238/gallery_gadgets Microsoft exec rebuts hypervisor security claims http://news.zdnet.com/2424-9595_22-219814.html Chrome's JavaScript poses challenge to Silverlight http://news.zdnet.com/2424-9595_22-219799.html EA's 'Spore' aims to create new worlds, businesses http://news.zdnet.com/2424-9595_22-219789.html Ten key differences between Linux and Windows http://news.zdnet.com/2424-9595_22-219655.html Microsoft to slash price of Xbox 360 http://news.zdnet.com/2424-9595_22-219644.html Five reasons why Chrome will crash and burn http://news.zdnet.com/2424-9595_22-219394.html Five reasons Chrome will take over the world http://news.zdnet.com/2424-9595_22-219392.html iPhone's remote deletions may help crooks cover tracks http://news.zdnet.com/2424-9595_22-219385.html Microsoft patents 'Page Up' and 'Page Down' http://news.zdnet.com/2424-9595_22-218626.html IBM claims 'Quicksilver' flash sets data-speed record http://news.zdnet.com/2424-9595_22-218622.html SaaS market will 'collapse' in two years http://news.zdnet.com/2424-9595_22-218408.html Inventor sues Google, Verizon, others on voicemail http://news.zdnet.com/2424-9595_22-218146.html Apple iPhone ad banned http://news.zdnet.com/2424-9595_22-218142.html Large Hadron Collider aces pre-launch testing http://news.zdnet.com/2424-9595_22-217914.html Patch issued for Ubuntu security flaw http://news.zdnet.com/2424-9595_22-217909.html Olympics set the stage for Web tech fight http://news.zdnet.com/2424-9595_22-217769.html Intel teases shape-shifting programmable matter http://news.zdnet.com/2424-9595_22-217501.html Worker suspended over loss of data on all English prisoners http://news.zdnet.com/2424-9595_22-217495.html Actors paid to line up for iPhone launch in Poland http://news.zdnet.com/2424-9595_22-217490.html Top five issues your IT staff wants to address but is afraid to tell you http://news.zdnet.com/2424-9595_22-217337.html Microsoft, eat your own dog food http://blogs.zdnet.com/carroll/?p=1870 Microsoft, eat your own dog food http://blogs.zdnet.com/carroll/?p=1870 Microsoft, eat your own dog food http://blogs.zdnet.com/carroll/?p=1870 MSI Eclipse -
