Note the high AOA of the flying wing, and the intermittent operation of the jets to match the DC-3s slow speed. Fascinating!

Cheers,

Between Red Bulls, and Breitling, flying men are becoming reality! It's not exactly the Rocketeer yet, but it's getting close!

I'm sure I'm not the only one who thinks of Wile E. Coyote from the Roadrunner cartoons every time they see a Jetman video :icon_lol: but I'll bet that is a tremendous thrill. I wouldn't have had the nerve to try it at age 19, not to mention present age 64.
