I would'nt want a heat source that close to my rear. What if I had beans and cabbage the night before?

Yeah, looks like fun, but I dunno. I've done Ultra-lights but this is a little different.

Jet powered!? Jeez, what's the training regimen on that thing? How do you land it? You're jet powered, blowing around and your standard Mark 2 leggs are supposed to stand that strain.

Nah, no me. I may be crazy, but I ain't THAT crazy.

I hope the dude is wearing a parachute. "There I was at 9,000 and it
flamed out"...... or worse, run out of fuel.

Maybe it's like the German "Komet"..... it gets you up there, then you're
on your own ! No thanks !!

Hmmm... I like a bit more metal around me. But flying in that is probably less frightening than landing with me!

Seriously, how would you land that thing? Fly till it runs out of gas (or there may be a cut off), glide in, pull up at the last second and land standing up?

I'd be worried about those wings "accidentally" folding up on me . . .

Pull a Pink Panther. Dive towards the ground and step aside at the last second. Bang goes the wings but you stand off to the side watching it.

Hopefully, the genius who built the thing thought that part through. Unless the shots are from his one and only flight!
