Flying with Jetman

Swiss aviator and inventor Yves Rossy is the only the person in history to fly with a jet-propelled wing. He is a former military and commercial airline pilot who spent over 10 years developing and testing 15 prototypes prior to the most recent rigid carbon-fiber version with 4 jet turbines.

Jetman has made historic flights over the Swiss Alps, English Channel, and Grand Canyon with speeds up to 190 mph. Here's an amazing sight of him flying in formation with L-39 Albatross fighter jets of the Swiss aerobatic Breitling jet team:  Jetman Yves Rossy flies with the Breitling Jet Team over the Grand Canyon

Below is Rossy's TEDtalk from 2011.
