Human Flight
Re: Human Flight
What a jolly stocking-filler for christmas. Just what I always wanted, Santa. Must trot down my local Lidl's center aisle and see if they stock fuel for the things.

I Suppose flying that would be a form of up-skirting

Re: Human Flight
Really cool, but for how long and how high before fuel runs out and you drop like a bag of flour??? The stress on your arms and shoulders would seem like it would be excessive.

Re: Human Flight
Tom, is there a peat briquette fuelled version for you? How many briquettes per hour of flight?
I believe in offering every assistance short of actual help but then mainly just want to be left to be myself in all my difference and uniqueness.
Re: Human Flight
Naw Dennis,
Briquettes would be far too heavy to give a useful range. I've changed my mind and opted for a couple of electric rechargeble models instead. The other advantage is they'd be a lot quieter and I'll be able to converse with MOH as we fly along......

Re: Human Flight
I think it was the Royal Marines experimented with a boarding of a vessel underway with one of those.
Re: Human Flight
Not aware of that particular experiment but not too surprising as Richard Browning, Gravity's founder, was in the Royal Marine Reserve for six years.partlyscot wrote: ↑Mon Dec 13, 2021 2:51 am I think it was the Royal Marines experimented with a boarding of a vessel underway with one of those.
Here is Richard's bio for folks who may be interested.
