How would you like to jump out of an airlplane and soar over 100 miles with just a set of wings attached to your back?? Beats skydiving and parachuting if you ask me (neither one of which I have ever tried but would like to) and to be able to glide through the air at 225 miles and hour for up to 100 miles or more....wow!!
Humans have tried this very thing since that "character" in ancient history tried it with the feathers and the tar and all that.
Well now it seems that this amazing ability has been breached with the development of a special flight suit that will be used for military like "Special Forces" units of the military. The wings are made of a lightweight carbon fibre material and even have pockets for one's "carry on luggage.
How cool!
I want one of these. Click link below for the full story:
