I live near a small air field and ppl go about in ultarlights all the time.
They did it a hundred years ago. With the motas we have these days and tools the average Joe can get hold of, I bet you could knock one together.
tbh i spent way too much time figuring out thrust to weight ratios of RC aircraft engines and air-foils i could tie to my body. luckily i was poor in my early 20s (and sadly) have remained poor, but at this point i have good enough depth in NACA archives if you could give me a decent thrust to weight i'd tie it to myself
lol
I take it you watched that bloke fly over the channel a few years back?
which bloke?
link since could be handful in my state of confusion
4 hobby jet engines and home made fiberglass foil.
im sorry, i cant help looking at this and thinking this is the future of suicide bommers

its cool figurative idea, but in reality a parachute with a lawnmower engine exists, has plans and advice, and gets same job done lol
slower speed but not like you are stationary
that guy has to hire a helicopter just so he can jump out, fugg that
Yeah. Flying feels incredible. When you're that high off the ground it doesn't matter how fast you're going, it's hard to tell. The felling of movement comes from the ears and in your gut.

Holy shit. That's fantastic.

Believe ~~alleged~~ victims.
There is no such thing as a false rape accusation. #YesAllMen
Believe the victim who tells you they were raped but don't believe the victim who tells you they were falsely accused of rape. It's not a contradiction, it's doublethink; twice the cognitive capacity of someone with a moral compass.
that's a fantastic one
great innit.
