Yves Rossy The Swiss Jet Man-ENGLISH TEXT under 'More info' ENGLISH TRANSLATION HERE (I'm not l337 enuf to do subtitles :) The Jet Man, Yves Rossy, a former Swiss military pilot, designed and built a deployable 3-meter wing, holding kerosene fuel for 2 jet engines (as of May 2008 FOUR turbines on a 2.5m wing!!) fixed to the tips and attached it to his back. Rossy launched from an airplane and flew for 4 minutes, traveling over 100 mph, landing by parachute. http://www.jet-man.com/prod/index_en.html OK here's my attempt at translation (if you can, please correct!): 00:16 (VIDEO START) 00:20 (German) Further, further away from the car 00:22 Yes 00:24 (French) Towards the drain 00:25 There? 00:26 Yep 00:33 ('SCOTLAND THE BRAVE' RINGTONE) 00:48 So, the idea is, as we see here, there's the fuel, the smoke cartridges, and the jet engines underneath, for horizontal flight. 01:00 In fact, the Flying Jet Man, that's the idea. And to do that we've developed this folding wing, taking into account the space available in the plane, because we don't have much space. A wing of 3 meters would not fit in the plane without being folding. 01:19 It's nearly a mini-airplane, except that, well, I'm the fuselage. So there's fuel, batteries, gas for starting the jet engines, oil is in the kerosene for lubricating the engine. I have a little handle for moving the ailerons so I can go up and down, so I've got all the controls just like a plane, and like I said I'm the fuselage with two jet engines up my backside! 01:56 The goal - horizontal flight. That's it. 03:08 (START ENGINES IN PLANE, WINGS FOLDED) 03:23 (JUMP) 04:27 (PARACHUTE OPENS) 04:50 (LANDING, WINGS FOLDED) 04:52 (excited) I had a fantastic exit from the plane, that's already a good start, because the wings don't open symmetrically, so I'm always a little tense that that will work well, sometimes that creates a little half turn like that, but I've exited well, and clunk! I was stable, so that's already a good start to the flight. 05:08 Physically it feels great, you're in gliding flight like that, you feel that you're falling, gliding, that's already OK, you're in flight, then you hit the gas, and vroom! bang! you feel how that pushes, and it holds up horizontally, it's great. 05:26 It's like there's a big handle in your back, and the good Lord takes you by it and shoves you through the air, it's fantastic!!

Yves Rossy - Yves "Jet Man" Rossy Crosses English Channel! - Swiss Jet Man: Yves Rossy - Jet-man: Human Powered Flight http://www.JetManBlog.com About the Movie with Yves Rossy: Source: CNN (All rights to CNN) A Swiss daredevil crossed the English Channel strapped to a homemade jet-propelled wing Friday, parachuting into a field near the white cliffs of Dover after a 10-minute solo flight. Yves Rossy leapt from a plane at more than 2,500 metres, then fired up his wing for the 35-kilometre trip from Calais, France. Rossy passed over a thin strip of land in front of South Foreland lighthouse, looped over onlookers and opened his parachute, his jet-propelled wing still strapped to his back. "It was perfect. Blue sky, sunny, no clouds, perfect conditions," he said. "We prepared everything and it was great." More: Swiss adventurer Yves Rossy successfully crossed the English Channel using his homemade jet-propelled wing Friday, the first man to perform the feat. Rossy leapt from a plane more than 8,800 feet or a mile and a half from the ground, before firing up his jets. He made the 22-mile trip from Calais in France to Dover in England in a little under 15 minutes. He began the Friday flight just before 1207 GMT; by 12:15 GMT, Rossy was above British soil and looped over onlookers before opening his parachute, with his wings still strapped to his back. He touched down in a field near the famous white cliffs of Dover. The trip across the channel is meant to trace the route of French aviator Louis Bleriot, the first person to cross in an airplane 99 years ago. The lighthouse was the site of Guglielmo Marconi's experiments with radio telegraphy in 1898. Bleriot used the white building as a target during his pioneering flight, the building's manager, Simon Ovenden, said. Several hundred spectators rushed to greet Rossy, trying to take photographs with cameras and cellphones. "It's a remarkable achievement, we saw the climax of his attempt as he came down to earth with his parachute. It's been an exciting afternoon," said Geoff Clark, a 54-year-old onlooker from Chatham, in Kent. The carbon composite-wing weighs about 55 kilograms when loaded with fuel, and carried four kerosene-burning jet turbines that kept him aloft. The wing had no steering devices - Rossy moved his body to control its movements. He wore a heat-resistant suit similar to that worn by firefighters and racing drivers to protect him from the heat of the turbines. The cooling effect of the wind and high altitude also prevented him from getting too hot. Mark Dale, the senior technical officer for the British Hang Gliding and Paragliding Association, described Rossy's flight as a "fabulous stunt."

Jetman Record - 7790 My newest Jetman record, complete with high framerate video, and the sound of my mouse clicks! =D I had a lot of close calls, but the closest was around 2:25. Please don't brag about your score or someone else's score, I don't really care. Prove it. :D This was just a bit of fun. I don't think I'm the best by a long shot.

JET MAN Man, forever obsessed with the dream of flying; Icarus' myth, tried time after time to fly like a bird. The best ever achieved are flying machines in which men lock themselves in, created by some of mankind's greatest pioneers in this area. Over the past decade, whilst still keeping the idea of flying like a bird in mind, various flying apparels were imagined and created such as hanggliders, paragliders, and gliding wingsuits. All of these use the various air currents to fly on and with. However, no-one will ever forget the human who could actually fly and who appeared on earth in 1939. This man could jump and fly through the air at whatever chosen moment: Batman... the Cartoon character created by Bob Kane. Today, Batman can leave behind his cartoon books and movie theatres and fly above the Swiss Alps, this person is Yves Rossy. He has finally achieved Leonardo Da Vinci's greatest fantasy and can fly through the air! Following a long line of predecessors, this Swiss man, who's lifetime passion is flying, once flew for the Swiss army at the controls of the Mirage III, then went on to fly as captain on Airbuses, and now has not only created and developed wings which allow him to fly, but also built and personally tested them over the past 7 years. Finally, and this since last Autumn, his dream became reality mainly because of 4 model-engines which were built under his wings. With these, he can fly at over 200km/hr and conquer mountain summits. During the flight, Yves's body becomes the likes of a bird and, other than a gas handle, Yves does not ride his wings but truly flies them, using various light body movements that he has learned to handle with perfection. These body movements are equal to those that birds use to fly... Tags: jet man swiss glider air force base airshow USA war anti submarine aircraft military aviation boeing f-22 airbus a380 |
