Not quite as off topic as the jet pack, but here's what the Ultrastar
ultimately
evolved to. Mr. Barber of NZ is still building at age 67 but
unfortunately
does not offer a kit or plans. My hat is off to him big time.

While jet engines for RC planes are about that size and can produce 32
pounds of thrust each, and you could make enough thrust with 8 of them....
This kid obviously has no idea what he is doing or and has no concept of CG.
With the engines rear mounted behind his body like that, it would never
fly, it would just pitch him into forward circles probably breaking his neck
before he ever left the ground.

Maybe we should just aim the jets AT Vamoose.  That'd end THAT problem.
Lar. Do not Archive.
P.S. Just for science' sake, I think I'm gonna be Mr. NiceGuy and send 1 of
those failed pumps to the engineer at Walbro. It'd be interesting to find
what happened. Unfortunately, I have no alternative to electric pumps
because of the fuel infection. Generally, they're good. How many
millions of cars are running them now, and rarely a failure.
Ahhhh..........the Luck o' Lar. Sigh. Do not
Archive.
