My thought exactly. I've seen some pretty remarkable things built out of a garage. But the fuel limit and altitude is a bit more difficult to overcome for someone building a jetpack in their garage. I still think it's a mannequin-like shell packed with either lipo batteries or liquid fuel.

The fact that it's been seen multiple times at a high profile airport tells me that maybe it's testing our ability or willingness to react to it.

I don't know, if the manni quin only has an 8 minute runtime, it may theoretically be capable of flying up to 6000 ft agl, but I'm pretty sure it would take much longer for it to climb to that altitude than 8 minutes. Remember, it not only has to have enough battery capacity to reach these altitudes, but enough to bring it back down also. If someone managed to get a done up there and it were to run out of battery, it would fall to earth. Being that it was sighted over LA, a densely populated urban area, it would have been found quickly. That is if it didn't injure someone, or damage property upon crashing to the ground. The latter of which is more probable than not, which would only lead to it being found quicker.

I have a few pics of a jetpack man, flying very high over the New Jersey shore during the dawn hour, August, 2018. I was taking pics with a long tele lens, I heard the craft, noting the unusual sound of the engine source, and directed my 400mm lens skyward. I know what I saw wasn't an electric drone or a small engine as you'd find on an RC plane; the sound was too distinctly different to be some hobbyist prank. The pilot had on an oversized suit, and there was a big pack on his back. He was also flying for a while. I saw him heading north, and a few minutes later saw him flying south. Totally unexplainable to me.

Having some lone inventor designing and building an advanced jetpack makes a nice story, but the only way I see that happening is: 1) engineer who quit or retired from aeronautical firm - best would be if he had worked for one of the two jetpack companies. 2) he is independently wealthy - which means he had a lot of stock options at his former employer, or he inherited it, OR he's working for someone wealthy 3) has a hidden place in the hills to launch and land at . Problems with this: 1) Flying around LA has got him noticed. IF he bought six turbojet engines at one time any time in the recent past, someone should remember them being ordered by an entity that is not a recognized aircraft research firm. 2) Hard to find a place anywhere near LA you could land and take off without being noticed even if you made the jetpack completely silent 3) Since he has not been noticed flying elsewhere in LA, his base is probably close to KLAX. Which leads to: 1) It's more likely a drone/mannequin combination. 2) best way to hide takeoff/landing location is roof of high building 3) It has to be near KLAX due to range issues I'd look for a high building near KLAX, probably a residential building with insecure roof access, where the perpetrator could be a resident or the building manager; OR an office building where they could be a tenant or building maintenance worker.

Launching from a high rooftop would definitely lessen the chance of being heard or seen. Even still, those turbines have got to be pretty loud. Then again, maybe this is the reason for the flights being in the vicinity of LAX ? If you think about it, being near to a busy airport would be the least likely place anyone would notice, or pay attention to the noise generated by a jet engine. Around an airport like LAX the sounds of jet engines are near constant, to a point we don't even pay attention to them when near. It would be much easier to takeoff without being noticed near LAX. By people on the ground anyway.

this would be my dad if he wasn't afraid of heights. the other week i walked in on him doodling on some craft paper, i looked over and it was a makeshift blue print for a WW1-era tank made with second hand car parts. my dad's a self-taught engineer who went to graphic design school in the 80s. the only thing that stops him from doing these things is that he'll spend more time complaining than doing.

If his base is near enough to the airport, his noises would be masked by planes. Nobody would notice. My other theory is his base being on the sea, but that might be too far, same as the desert. Somebody said it could be on roof of tall building, but it would have to be inhabited (top floors at least) at certain times to go unnoticed.

It could be fake, like a uav or a balloon. But it could also just be some rich tech dude who had a sweet jetpack built. Jetpack technology is pretty advanced. To the people saying that 5000 ft is too high for.l a human I guess didn't see the guy who parachuted to earth from outer space. With the right breathing equipment and protective clothing 5000 ft is definitely possible.

It is just the amount of fuel you would need to get up there that doesn't seem possible, and you would use twice as much to descend, because you would want a slow controlled descent, not a near free fall. The jet would be running far longer on descent than it would on ascent.

@TheCrazyMoparDude68
@TheCrazyMoparDude68 12 дней назад
No, you are wrong. It is actually a common slang word used within many engineering companies, especially those companies in the aerospace, military aviation, and military technology. It describes a department of specialists that develop new technology without having to report through the normal “chain of command”. Meaning they can continue to work on their projects without having to report to the bosses every step of the way and can get the project done much quicker. And these groups are comprised of the best and brightest of the companies and tend to work on classified technology. And there is no company called Skunk Works either. There is a division of Lockheed Martin that is called the Skunk Works, but it isn’t a separate company all,of it’s own. The division was first called Lockheed Advanced Project Development Division and was formed during WW2 and was before Lockheed merged with Martin Aviation. The name was “changed” to Skunk Works when they were working on the P-80 Shooting Star and had a large circus tent set up near a plastic company in which they did most of their work in. The tent was close enough to the plastic manufacturer that the smell from the various chemicals would waft into the tent and stay resulting in the tent having a really horrible smell inside. The terrible smell made the R&D workers think about the Skonk Works factory that was in the Lil Abner comic strip and soon they began to refer to that tent as the Skunk Works. And the name stuck and eventually Lockheed started using that name in place of the advance development department. Although I believe the official name of the department is still Lockheed Martins Advance Development Department, Skunk Works is just easier to say. Now the term Skunk Works is used to describe any small and dedicated team of R&D engineers/scientists that works on special or secret projects without direct oversight of the higher ups.

i bet it's the pet project of some retired military engineer or something lmao also, there's no reason that a "jetpack" has to be built like a jet engine. There are plenty of other ways to do it, like compressed air, chemical engines, rockets (i suppose rockets would be a bit too lethal to strap on yourself, though), etc.

Love all of your videos. I have a different theory regarding jetpack man that matches up to his altitude, speed, and the Dynasty pilot's description of him being shiney. I believe he's actually a balloon, specifically a life-sized Buzz Lightyear balloon like the one seen in this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hh5mpHtlAO4.html Depending on air currents, he could be hovering in place or caught in a jet stream moving several hundred miles per hour.

The designer of the original jet belt designed a jet pack with a 30 minute flight duration. He died before it entered production, the the engine designed for the jet pack was repurposed for use in US cruise missiles. Also note, that yes, if they get to 6,000 feet they will run out of fuel, but that is what parachutes are for. Most of the wing flyers use a chute for landing. That makes the landing much quieter. If I was designing said suit, I would tend to use a rocket ramjet design or maybe a rocket turbo prop. Jet engines are very inefficient at slow speed and low altitudes, but a rocket based system would be easier to make, and there are a couple of ways to extend your flight time beyond 30 seconds.
