BACKGROUND
With a rich family history in Aviation, former Oil Trader & Royal Marines Reservist, Richard Browning, founded pioneering Aeronautical Innovation company, Gravity Industries in March 2017 to launch human flight into an entirely new era.
The Gravity #JetSuit uses over 1000bhp of Jet Engine power combined with natural human balance to deliver the most intense and enthralling spectacle, often likened to the real life Ironman.
Gravity has to date been experienced by over a billion people globally and covered by virtually every media platform. The Gravity Team, based in the UK, have delivered over 100 flight & Speaking events across 30 countries including 5 TED talks.
“The team and I are delivering on the vision to build Gravity into a world class aeronautical engineering business, challenge perceived boundaries in human aviation, and inspire a generation to dare ask 'what if…”

It was an adventurous experience! I fondly remember popping out the clouds in descent with my ears hurting seeing Chicago just magically appears and that Sears tower and economic skyline inspiring me that America was truly great and it was a high honor to be an American serving in the US Army.

Jetpack racing. Finally! Amazing to see those photo finishes. The race between Issa and the founder, a 0.12 second difference. I didn't even think that was possible from watching the first few heats! As a small child in the late 1980's, there wasn't even a video game that could match what's happening IRL here. First thing close would be Pilotwings for SNES in 1991. I love sledding, ziplines, mountain biking & fast ebikes, and flying in planes. I'd love to fly one of these jet suits one day!

@@raymondo162 I highly disagree. There's a reason why certain militaries are investing in it and have jet suit units. France has a squadron of these, and France is not one to go for frivolous novelties. They are often far ahead because they have a keen eye to see potential when others are afraid to invest because new tech is always considered "novelty" at the start. iPhone was mocked on launch because smart phones were considered novelty. Try finding a mobile phone today that's _not_ a smart phone... (yes, they still exist, but that's not the point.) The USA has recently started constructing its first high speed train line. France introduced the first commercial high speed train connection in 1981! So when they invest in this tech today for military applications, expect it to become commonplace in half a century.

@wormhole331 2 месяца назад
Jet engine design is pretty much maxed out so you can't get any smaller for the power they make for the jet engines. The biggest problem is the fuel. Jet engines are thirsty so you need to carry a lot of fuel which is heavy and bulky and the reason for the bulky size. The size of mitary jets have the same problem. The size of the aircraft is directly related to how much fuel they carry. An F-14 is small fast and nimble but can only fly an hour (7 minutes for full afterburner) while an SR-71 is absolutely massive because it carries enough fuel to fly half way across the world. They all are essentially flying fuel tanks. There needs to be a whole new different fuel that has more energy density than kerosene and that'll be hard to do. Hydrogen has 3 times the energy density of kerosene but pretty much Impossible to use in this application.

And what part this sort of racing played in exposing the tech to the general public, so that they, too, would gain and build upon their trust in the mfgs and the tech involved, further assuring a path to a future where this sort of tech is not only less expensive and more easily available, but more common and trusted by society as a whole...

Considering she missed the turn and was still only 2 seconds behind at the finish, I sure wouldn't count her out. I watched TWO firsts today. Monocycle (electric unicycle) racing at 65 mph and jet pack racing. AWESOME!!!! WHERE THE HELL WERE THESE WHEN I WAS YOUNG ENOUGH TO RACE? At least I got to race motorbikes in the desert at 120+, maybe I should quit whining!

I thought about that. I like the idea, but it would most likely be a impediment to the pilots behind you. A clear visual would be essential to the race. Maybe if they equip lights. That would be less expensive. Less points of failure. No fumes. It will also work at night. That would work for the audiences in attendance and the viewers at home. This sport could be huge.
