Photo from open source jetpack is a personal aerial gear worn on the back and allowing the wearer to move through the air using traction, created by a jet jet thrown by the engine. Fifteen years ago, rocket packs were considered clean. science fiction, however today the richest and most daring inventive inhabitants of the planet have the opportunity to fly on them.
So, the inventor and pilot Yves Rossi from Switzerland, as well as his assistant Vince Reffet swept on jetpacks over the largest the city of the United Arab Emirates, recording its flight on the camera. A twelve-minute video was shot from the plane, who followed on the Swiss, and fastened on the helmets of flyers GoPro cameras. First, pilots flew over the desert on the outskirts Dubai, after having made several pirouettes over artificial Palm islands and eventually circled around Burj Khalifa – the most high skyscraper of the planet.
In his youth, now fifty-five Yves Rossi was a pilot civil and military aviation. A decade ago, the inventor began design your own jetpack essentially different from other people’s developments. Distinctive feature of it missile aircraft became the lack of wing mechanization. Flight control is carried out by shifting the center of mass, while the pilot only needs to move his legs, arms and head. To start, you should jump with a satchel behind your back with helicopter, balloon or airplane, while soft landing provide special parachutes – one for the pilot and aircraft.
The weight of each of the two rocket packs designed by Rossi and The reference is about sixty kilograms with a full tank fuel. The wing span of an aircraft is two meters, and the maximum speed reaches three hundred kilometers per hour. The fuel is ordinary aviation kerosene.
Recall that in November 2013, Rossi, testing his unique aircraft nine times circled a Japanese volcano Fujiyama.
