It's hard to believe our fast technology can make this machine
It's hard to believe our fast technology can make this machine. A man can fly without parachute. This will makes our generation do.
The ultimate dream of flying through the air combat, completely free in all three dimensions, not the heavy complex machine, but one body and emotions - the dream we all had at least once in their lives. Geneva (AFP) Yves Rossy, the swiss adventurer who had flown across the English Channel using a jet pack wing, another exploit was removed friday, flying the skies of the two loops on a new version of his invention. Rossy, who was testing a new model, more aerodynamic jet pack, jump from a hot air balloon at 2400 meters (7900 feet) and performed the feat during a flight 18 minutes before making a parachute landing. "He flew a few minutes to stabilize their wings and find the optimum angle for launching two loops." Rossy, 51, said his new model of jet pack, which has a wingspan of two meters instead of 2.5 meter model and nothing down, they are more aerodynamic and stable.He designed with the help of Swiss RUAG Society.

Yves Rossy, known as jetman successfully conducted today at 10:03 on his first lap fronting on a hot air balloon is controlled by Brian Jones, above BERCHERES. Yves Rossy The Swiss left BERCHERES 21:45 (Swiss time) this morning on board a hot air balloon "Esprit Breitling orbiter, piloted by Brian Jones, reaching an altitude of 2,400 meters in 18 minutes. The wings rear, 4 jet engines, he jumped from the balloon basket. flew a few minutes to stabilize their wings and find the optimal angle to start two loops. Jetman run a forward rotation of the earth. then enteredhis parachute to land on Denezy (VD). The flight was made with Yves Rossy flew unfoldable new and smaller parties (2 meters instead of 2.5 meters) and out. The new prototype, designed by Yves and Ruag Company, has a more aerodynamic profile and more stability. Two years after crossing the Channel, these technological advances provided Jetman to perform his stunts for the first time in the air.
The hot air balloon in front of where people are able to fly the result is called "Esprit Breitling orbiter." On its board of directors, the British balloonist Brian Jones, winner of the first round does not stop the world balloon flight in 1999, he maneuvered with precision ball Yves Rossy is a loop as possible. The first trick will allow more freedom and more people to fly using only his body movements to steer in the air. Yves Rossy words after landing: "It is amazing flight went well, despite a slight problem when starting my engine I was able to do my two loops and I'm very happy!." Blue Sky!.

With the group that invented ago, started with a good try cameras followed Ross as he rose into the air. But he disappeared from sight, and it was unclear whether he will continue his campaign account in the cloud depth, or if he was forced to jump. About 14 minutes, which was 15 minutes of flight, the camera showed Rossi left lying in the Atlantic Ocean. As rescue helicopters flew in it was not clear if the rash survived. Then a wave of signaling equipment that he is alive and well. Stuart Sterzel, CEO of sponsor Mobilink WebTel, said: "He is fine and as a standard procedure, which is on its way to the hospital in the south of Spain." Rossy flew across the English Channel between Calais and Dover, but it was his first attempt at a transcontinental flight. His team said he will try. During the flight, Rossi looks like something the cartoon hero who drove at speeds exceeding 180 miles per hour.
