On this date in 1909, Louis Blériot embarked on a historic flight from Le Touquet, France. This marked the inaugural crossing of the English Channel in a heavier-than-air aircraft, with the landing occurring near Hastings, England. Is this true or false?
Answer: False
It was correct in a lot of detail, the date, pilot and the English Channel but he did not fly from Le Touquet to Hastings.
