FLYING SUIT FUTURE OF AVIATION
We live in the world full of innovation. We are unaware of different kind of information about innovation which are very interesting. Our world cannot function well if innovators do not innovate. Richard Browning is one of the innovators who have innovated fully functional gas turbine-powered jet suit successfully. It is named as 'Daedalus Flight Pack'. We have seen Tony Stark flying in Iron Man suit and Carl Johnson levitating in GTA San Andreas as a rocketman. He has successfully designed a suit that can make us fly in air. That's why he is known as "real-life Iron Man".
At initial stage the whole journey was just for fun. Richard wanted to design a suit for himself that enables him to fly. He was not thinking of commercialization. He used to work in his leisure time but in course of time his ideas flourished and gained confidence for the success of his project and started giving more priority to his amazing project. After investing his time in this innovation he finally started his own company called "Gravity" in 2017.
Now lets talk about the flying suit. The flying suit has 2 mini jet engine strapped to each hand and slightly larger one on the back. The suit has 5 turbines and has a power of 1050 bhp(brake horse power) which is higher than many powerful cars in market like Bugatti Veyron. The engine needs fuel to run and uses jet oil or diesel as fuel. Its dry weight is 27 kg. Its record speed is 51.53 km/hr. The suit comprises of helmet that shows fuel indication, your altitude and speed obviously. Daedalus Flight Pack has been enhanced many times with time. Browning and his team are also working to make electric version of suit.
Flying in a suit is not easy but it is a lot safer than riding a bike in public road. It is not necessary that we have to possess any special ability , we just know how to use it and little bit self control. This suit has been commercialized now. If you are interested and can afford up to $440000 then it is available in the Europe's markets. Innovation always looks after affordable price. So this company will come up with idea of reducing its price by bringing electric version of Daedalus Flight Pack.
This suit has many benefits. We can use it as the medium for safe and adventurous tourism in the country like Nepal. It might also help to transport injured people , search lost people in hills and mountains and can save drowning person in lake,river. It is life saving suit.
Let's hope that the suit becomes more enhanced, reliable, efficient in coming future and hope we all get a chance to experience its ride , for fun not as injured person. Surely this innovation will take the aviation industry to the next phase.
