I remember seeing a guy fly into Old Old Busch Stadium in St. Louis back in the mid 60’s. It looks like almost exactly the same rig. I always wondered why it never really caught on.

When they can get it from 34 seconds to 34 minutes, call me.

insamity…the liability for this product would be horrendous…..the first time some idiot goes over 32 seconds and falls from 100 feet, the company will be sued and bankrupted.

It ain’t flying. It is more a controlled rocket.

I think Bell Aero, near Niagara Falls, led the way. Remember watching this guy fly into a Bills game in the ’60s.

“It ain’t flying”

That depends on your definition of flying. My favorite has always been “Flying is the art if throwing yourself on the ground… and missing”.

$200K is “affordable for the average person”? What, your average Citigroup or AIG exec swimming in taxpayer bailout money?

These machines have something that makes them irresistible. But I would rather have a gyrocopter.
It flies some seconds longer…

A 34 second flight is next to useless.
