This has led to him being referred to in the press by various monikers, such as The Airman, Jetman, Rocketman, and Fusionman.so,a few pics here of him an a couple of fav vids…fer ur viewing pleasure today if ya decide to gander at his gadgets.We mark a new milestone in the chapter of human flight. Join Jetman Yves Rossy and his protege, Jetman Vince Reffet as they explore the limits in the city of dreams.

In 2008, Rossy made a flight over the Alps Mountain Range, reaching a top descent speed of 304 kilometres per hour (189 mph), and an average speed of 200 kilometres per hour (120 mph).

In November 2009, Rossy attempted a crossing of the Strait of Gibraltar, hoping to be the first person to fly between two continents using a jetpack. He leapt from a small plane about 1,950 m (6,500 ft) above Tangier in Morocco and headed in the direction of Atlanterra, Spain. The flight was expected to take about a quarter of an hour. Strong winds and cloud banks forced Rossy to ditch into the sea just three miles from the Spanish coast, where his support helicopter picked him up ten minutes later. He was flown to a hospital in Jerez and soon released unhurt. The Spanish Coast Guard retrieved the jetpack, which had a parachute and a float.
On 5 November 2010, Rossy flew a new version of his jet-powered flight system and successfully performed two aerial loops before landing via parachute. He had launched from a hot air balloon piloted by Brian Jones at 2,400 meters (7,900 feet).
Since 2007 one of his training sites is in Spain, in the private airfield Skydive Empuriabrava in Empuriabrava (Girona, Costa Brava).[8][9] On 7 May 2011, Rossy reportedly flew above the Grand Canyon in Arizona.
The United States Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) had classified his flight system as an aircraft. When it finally granted him a license, the FAA waived the normal 25 to 40 hours of flight testing time, and Rossy acted quickly to complete his flight. Reporters, who had been waiting nearby since the cancellation of the original scheduled flight—on the day before—were not informed. There were, therefore, no independent witnesses to document his flight

Jetman Grand Canyon Flight, Yves Rossy
“This is the most challenging place I could fly,” the Jetman, Yves Rossy, told reporters. Rossy’s flight was his first in the U.S. and potentially his most difficult. Previous over-water flights across the English Channel and Strait of Gibraltar provided the option of a water landing — an option Rossy chose when en-route weather reduced safety margins during the Gibraltar run. The canyon offered far fewer options for a safe landing in the event of an emergency and its sharp corners and steep walls increased the likelihood of turbulence.

I now have to wonder if the Wright brothers ever visioned a human body being a fuselage on a jet plane? I guess there was a picture of a fellow about that time jumping off a cliff. His homemade wings collapsed as he jumped, he tried to fly. Did they vision jets, let alone a human body with wings and rocket engines? That was a thrilling adventure. Thank you.
