French pilot Didier Esteyne raises his hands in victory upon landing an Airbus E-Fan airplane at the Calais-Dunkerque airport, thus becoming the first pilot to fly an electric aircraft across the English channel, on July 10, 2015. The lightweight two-seater aircraft took off from Lydd, southwestern England, around 8h15 GMT and landed at the Calais-Dunkerque airport at 8h56 GMT. Nearly 106 years after French aviator Louis Bleriot crossed the English Channel for the first time, the 74 km flight was accomplished by French pilot Didier Esteyne. AFP PHOTO / DENIS CHARLET
