Not quite the same but in 1953 Christopher Draper the Mad Major flew an Auster under 15 of the 18 London bridges as a protest against the treatment of war veterans. He was arrested & fined 10 guineas.

I was told that another character & well-known reprobate, Maurice Kirk (the Flying Vet), once flew under Tower Bridge with Oliver Reed as passenger.
