Redelijk druk, is veel gemakkelijker dan de andere kant.

I've been up this hill... down ... And I stopped to photograph the statue of Hubert Latham, an aviation pioneer, born in 1883 and probably murdered in 1912, aged 29. He tried twice to cross the English Channel and failed both times.
The statue is almost 3 metres high and is the work of the sculptor Georges Vergez. It was unveiled on 13 August 1922 in the presence of the aviator's mother and sister. Louis Blériot gave a moving speech on this occasion.

Cette montée, je l'ai ... descendue ... Et je me suis arrêté pour photographier la statue d'Hubert Latham, pionnier de l'aviation, né en 1883 et mort sans doute assassiné en 1912, à l'âge de 29 ans. Il essaya à deux reprise de traverser la Manche et échoua les deux fois.
Haute de près de 3 mètres, cette statue est l'œuvre du sculpteur Georges Vergez. Elle a été inaugurée le 13 août 1922 en présence de la mère et de la sœur de l'aviateur. Louis Blériot prononça à cette occasion un discours émouvant.
