3-D printed jet suit takes first public flight in New York
- 5 years ago
A new 3-D printed jet suit has taken its first public flight, taking off and landing without incident a couple of times at the USS Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum in New York.
The new suit has five turbo jet engines in total -- two smaller engines on each arm, and a larger one on the back.
The jet suit was built by inventor Richard Browning from Gravity Industries, a British company.
Currently, Browning holds the Guinness World Record for the fastest speed in a body-controlled jet engine-powered suit, reaching 50 kilometers an hour.
