independent.co.uk— Meet the Martin Jetpack, a contraption unveiled at a US air show yesterday. It is a real-life version of the toy we all fantasised about as children (and some of us as adults)

I would probably have one but it would have to have an ejector seat fitted. As diggit83 pointed out a chute will not open below 100 feet.I would also suggest a small one man liferaft for if you should drift over water.Would there be room for a small hospitality tray for in flight refreshments.Then there is the need for a toilet as the contraption does look a bit hairyOtherwise get my name down for a modified modelIf it dosen`t work I could always stick it at the back of the garage with the other junk I have bought over the years

Not a jetpack. Personal Flight Device, sure, but not a jetpack.Side question, how many decibels does it batter your head with?
