Martin Jetpack Becomes A Reality
Wednesday, July 30, 2008 14:47Posted in category News, Technology
Glenn Martin, spend 27 years of his life to fulfill the dream of thousands out there, to design a working jetpack!
He showed his creation to the world at the EAA AirVenture, where the jetpack helped his 16 year old son hover 3 feet of the ground for 45 seconds. The current specs of this flying machine include a gas-powered, V-4 piston engine and two ducted fans, that lift its pilot 8,000 feet up in the air for 30 minutes.
If you are interested in buying this device then be prepared to fork out at least $100,000.
