Microlight pilot recovered off the French coast

The body of a microlight pilot who was planning to fly from Britain to Australia on a solo charity flight has been recovered off the French coast. <br/><br/>Martin Bromage, 49, began his journey yesterday but was reported missing during the flight. He hoped to complete the trip in six weeks and raise money for Help for Heroes, a charity for Britain's war wounded. <br/><br/>Dover Coastguard says Mr Bromage was trying to return to the UK after dense fog prevented him landing in France.<br/>
