For those of you YouTube watchers here is an amazing video of a guy who straps a wing on his back with several rocket engines bolted to it, and then zooms around the (Swiss?) countryside. Just amazing.
Oh and it is on topic because the launch plane looks kind of like a Kitfox.

not rocket engines. They are Jetcat turbine engines that were originaly ment for R/C jets (I have one). THat is WAY too cool.... that has to be an incredible feeling.
I am not sure if they are 80's or 120's. If 80s then he has around 100# of thrust. If 120's then he has around 155-160# depending on what RPM he has them set at...
