Fancy a go in this?

Post by VEGAS »

Not sure I'd opt for a flight in it. I'd be too worried about falling out of the bottom! :lol: :lol:

Dunno how you'd fall out since it's strapped to you like a backpack. :)

Neat idea, take the idea of a hang glider and apply it to a light glider/sailplane. Looks pretty ingenious.

I figured that it's worn like a backpack. :)

Just the mind games knowing a bloody great trap doors beneath you. :lol:

My bigger fear is what happens when you hit a bump or rock on landing with your rump that close to the ground.
