“Levende Iron Man” vliegt op Farnborough Airshow

July 16, 2018 - July 22, 2018 - De Britse uitvinder en entrepreneur Richard Browning en zijn team van
Gravity Industries zullen dit jaar op de Farnborough International Airshow
een demonstratie geven van het Gravity Jet Suit.

The $250,000 Gravity Jet Suit has more horse power than a Formula 1 car. Small jet engines mounted on each arm and behind the suit’s back can produce 144kg of thrust to achieve vertical take-off and flight. Using his body as the airframe, Richard’s arms control speed, thrust and direction.

Former Royal Marine Reservist Richard Browning founded Gravity Industries in April 2017. Since then the company has grown rapidly and he entered the Guinness World Record books for the fastest speed in a body-controlled jet engine-powered suit In November 2017.
