cool how much can it lift, and how long does it last between fuel stops?

Phil

Doubt life insurance covers one of those.

Looks quite sedate in a lethal if anything goes wrong kind of way

Have fun mate.

now youll know what its like to be playing basketball on the moon!!

Rocket man I don't know what he was thinking but I bet it cured his piles

As Mr T would say " I ain't getting on no plane you crazy fool"

I've done some daft things in my life, but even i wouldn't strap that to my back!

is anyone else worried about the fuel tank (ok, i'm worried about lots of things with that but the fuel tank next to your head!)

Bye - bye!!!

strapping it on isn't the problem, it is starting the engine

Good effort mate.

That is quite possibly the most dangerous thing I've ever seen!

Cool though! And it'd get me past the traffic on the way to work!

Do you need a licence to actually 'fly' it?

Cheers,

I think if its anything over 30kgs loaded (ie with payload) then you need CAA aproval (certainly thats how it works with model aircraft.)

Although yoou hardly can go further then two yards with it. Id like to see it travel higher and sustain flight but think a parachute is essential.

Considering many honda engines turn the 'wrong' way I'd have a look at their starters to see if they spin that way.

Honda starter?? Up until the newer ones, hondas turned the other way to the rest so you should be ok with a honda starter, or one form a "normal" engine that faces from the opposite way to your audi one i.e. if the audi is from the engine side then you need one from the gearbox side.

must type faster!!

Thanks for the "Honda" hint guys !!!

Well, that certainly looks madder than a box of frogs!
Oh, been nice knowing you too!
