Moment 'air scooter' bids to fly across English Channel
Franky Zapata, 46, attempted to cross the English Channel in his AirScooter as part of a bid to impress investors in the US and market it to a whole new audience across the Atlantic This is the moment an "air scooter" crashed into the water during a failed bid to cross the English Channel. A French start-up tried to make history on Friday by crossing the Channel using vertical take-off and landing craft. Franky Zapata, 46, hopped in his AirScooter in Sangatte, near Calais, in a bid to complete the 21-mile journey across the Channel toward Kent. He zoomed across the water but decided to turn back after 17 minutes. Just nine minutes later, the craft slowly nosedived into the sea as observers watched on from a nearby boat. The AirScooter team said an "electric parachute" had slowed the descent and prevented a freefall. Team members are now looking to recover the air scooter. Before the flight, Zapata said he was not "100 per cent sure" the craft would reach Dover, in Kent. He added: "We've been rehearsing the flight for months and months. "It's relatively good but it's still new. Sometimes everything goes well and sometimes not so well." Zapata had hoped a Channel crossing would be a massive opportunity to market the craft to American investors. The US currently has fewer regulations on ultralight aircraft compared to counterparts in Europe, including France and the UK. But the crash now indicates Zapata will need to examine the product to iron out any possible flaws with its design. The Times reported Zapata wants wealthy out-of-town homeowners "who want to fly to the neighbours' for a barbecue on a Sunday." He latter conceded, "they won't be able to use them over towns." The craft weighs about 115kg (253lbs) and was said to be able to fly about two hours and reach a speed of 62mph. The aircraft is estimated to cost about £149,000 and Zapata has announced he intends to open a flight centre in Las Vegas in 2028, that will give people the opportunity to try it out. Zapata crossed the Channel on a hoverboard n 2019, which cemented his reputation. He went on to be asked to fly over the Champ Elysées avenue in Paris for the Bastille Day parade about a year later.

The £200bn reason why Swinney must not make a mess of Trump visit

There is a surplus of advice to John Swinney about issues he should raise with President Donald Trump, most of it misguided. This is not an opportunity to be wasted on grandstanding or moral indignation. The policy area on which Mr Swinney might have some possibility of influence is around trade and tariffs. So far, Keir Starmer has done pretty well on that front so, at this point, the obligation is to consolidate that advantage, not to threaten it. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad There should be the closest possible co-operation between Downing Street and Edinburgh to ensure that Mr Swinney is singing from exactly the same hymn sheet as the Prime Minister, including appreciation of the trade deal to which Mr Trump has apparently signed up. It is advisable to include the word 'apparently' in every such statement since it is well established that when dealing with Mr Trump, the Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away, particularly if provoked. A lot of livelihoods are dependent on not screwing it up. It also helps to understand and, to some extent, empathise with where Mr Trump is coming from on the whole question of tariffs and protectionism, which runs deep in the American psyche. It was only in 1947 that the USA converted to the principles of free trade, and even then a lot of its people and communities were never really convinced. We should be able to understand that. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Keir Starmer has worked hard to mitigate the damage to the UK economy caused by Donald Trump's tariffs (Picture: Stefan Rousseau/pool) | Getty Images 'Liberation Day' stock market plunge It is received wisdom and probably true that nobody ever wins from trade wars. However, that seems a bit glib in the vast swathes of America which have seen the disappearance of proud manufacturing industry. Mr Trump has not found it difficult to convince his base that the old medicine of tariffs is required to save what's left, or even turn the lights back on in derelict factories and mills. He soon found out after being re-elected that rhetoric on this subject is easier than implementation. His great 'Liberation Day' tariffs announcement led to stock markets plummeting and they were hastily put on hold. Since then, there has been more bluster than clarity but as things stand, the UK will 'benefit' from a ten per cent tariff, significantly lower than the EU. Our exporting industries can live with that. The Scotch Whisky Association has welcomed the UK Government's 'measured and pragmatic approach'. So let's just keep the ship steady until the storm passes. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Cashmere tariff panic My own learning curve about the direct relevance of tariffs to that most basic human commodity – jobs – came shortly after I became UK trade minister and received a call at home one Saturday morning from the panic-stricken managing director of a Borders cashmere company which exported 90 per cent of its production to the United States. Did I know what was going on with the World Trade Organisation authorising US tariffs on cashmere knitwear as part of a long-running dispute about the EU giving preferential treatment to Caribbean bananas, as opposed to those imported from American-owned companies in Latin America? If this went ahead, many hundreds of jobs were at stake. It was the kind of call one does not forget. To the uninitiated, it would require a book to explain how cashmere knitwear had become intertwined with bananas in a trade war, but take my word for it. We did pretty well on that one, by underwriting the impact of tariffs until that particular storm had passed, which it duly did. But it taught me two lessons – first, the ruthlessness with which the US acts on trade issues and, second, the direct and immediate impact this has on jobs. That's why it is so important to proceed with care, particularly in the current, capricious environment. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Harris Tweed also has a colourful history of avoiding punitive US tariffs which once involved a Free Church minister going to Washington to plead the industry's special case, having first rallied support for exemption among fellow fundamentalists in the textile-producing areas of the southern States. At that time, vast quantities of the fabric were exported to the US to be turned into jackets. The change that has taken place epitomises the issue. To all intents and purposes, there is no American garment-making industry any more. Much of the fabric goes to other countries with lower labour costs and it is the finished products which enter America and will be subject to tariffs at whatever rate is eventually set. Fortunately, the American market is much less dominant than it used to be, for there would now be no space for even a Free Church minister, never mind a trade one, to exercise benign influence! Value of exports to US is huge For similar reasons, Ireland is waiting with trepidation for the terms of the US-EU deal. By relying so heavily on American tech companies for low-taxed inward investment, the threat of tariffs on the finished products which are exported back to the US is a serious threat to its economic base. Trump's message to Apple and the likes that they should be manufacturing in America is intended to be powerful. Last time round, Trump's tariffs cost the Scotch Whisky industry around £600 million. Understandably, along with Scottish salmon, it tends to catch the headlines while representing a modest proportion of the overall picture. The United States market is worth almost £200 billion to the UK in goods and services, by far our biggest trading partner. The difference between ten per cent and even 15 per cent matters a lot, which is why Mr Starmer's trade deal is so important. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad

Donald Trump says he 'loves standing on the soil of Scotland'
Ian Murray told the PA news agency what the US President's first words were after disembarking from Air Force One in Prestwick. The UK Government minister was the first person to greet the president in Scotland as he begins his four day visit to the country. Speaking after meeting the American leader, Murray told PA: 'The president came off the flight, and I said, 'Mr president, welcome to Scotland – the home country of your dear mother', and he said, 'It's great to be here, I always love standing on the soil of Scotland'. READ MORE: LIVE: Updates as protesters rally against Donald Trump in Scotland 'I said, 'I hope you're looking forward to a bit of downtime with some golf this weekend', and he said, 'Yes'. And I said, 'Well, we've whipped up a bit of a wind for you to make it a bit more competitive', and he went, 'I'm looking forward to it'.' Murray said Trump was given a 'warm reception' as he got off his presidential plane. Hundreds gathered on the Mound overlooking Prestwick Airport for the president's arrival. A Trump flag was flown while a few spectators wore 'Make America Great Again' hats, although many of those attending were locals and aviation enthusiasts, including some who had travelled from England. Murray said: 'Spotters hills, as it's called, where all the plane spotters come to Prestwick, was absolutely full. 'You could see that from the tarmac and as Air Force One came in, people were snapping away on their photographs. 'To see all that happening is quite a spectacle in itself. 'It's really good to have that kind of focus on Scotland.' Trump will meet Prime Minister Keir Starmer during his trip to discuss the UK-US trade deal as Britain hopes to be spared from the president's tariff regime. The Scottish Secretary said: 'Really, the purpose of this weekend, the purpose of greeting the president off the plane, the purpose of the Prime Minister's relationship with the president is to build that close relationship, to make sure that that old alliance is nurtured, and to do that for the benefit of the national interest, which is about jobs and growth here in the UK, and particularly Scotland.' Trump will meet Scottish First Minister John Swinney during his trip as he opens a new golf course in Aberdeenshire. (Image: PA) Before flying to Prestwick, Trump said in Washington that he was 'looking forward' to meeting Swinney, describing him as a 'good man' – the same phrase he used for the Prime Minister after landing in Scotland. Asked about the president's relationship with the UK, Murray said: 'The Prime Minister has taken a very pragmatic approach to the relationship with the president of the United States, because it's in our national interest to do so, whether it be on defence, security, trade, cultural, historic ties. 'It's a historic alliance, and that alliance has to be nurtured and continue through to the future, because it's quite clear that our relationship with United States is good for jobs and growth here in Scotland and across the UK. 'The Prime Minister knows that, and knows that working very closely with the US is in our national interest.' Asked about protests, which are expected across the country, Murray said people had a right to demonstrate, adding: 'Freedom of speech, freedom of assembly and freedom to protest is a key cornerstone of both countries, America and the UK, and the right to be able to protest if they so wish to so.'
