Video: "It’s a Freakin’ Jet Pack"

Source: Jetlev

In one of my post’s last week, the video had a quick clip of a Jetlev flyer in the background.  A few friends had never seen it before and were curious as to what it was.  So here it is; the Jetlev RS200.  The RS200 is a two part unit that consists of a jetpack and a boat unit to house the pump.  The boat unit is tethered to the jetpack by a 33 foot hose.  Here are some specs for the Jetlev RS200:

·         Engine: 200 horsepower, marinized 4 stroke

·         Fuel Capacity: 22gal

·         Range/Duration: 80miles/4hrs

·         Boat Unit: LOA = 127 inches, Beam = 48 inches

·         Jetpack weight : 30lbs

·         Max Thrust: 420 lbf

·         Top Speed: 28mph

·         Flight Ceiling: 30ft

·         MSRP: $99,500

Now, before you balk at the price tag; remember, it’s a freakin’ jet pack.  You don’t have to commit all at once, you can schedule a test drive through one of their “flight centers.”

Check out the videos of the Jetlev RS200 in action after the jump.
