HOLY CRAP!
You can only fly that jetpack for 30 minutes before you run out of fuel
Yes but 30 minutes at 60 mph is fairly good, you have a 30 mile range which would get you to work and back for many people.
It also uses normal petrol rather than Aviation fuel and those only last a maximum of 12 minutes.
Loving the comic, stumbled across this today
I imagine that flying into the propeller of a Cessna would sound something like sticking a chicken leg into a juicer.
Thanks for the link Portalis. Who knew? Well, besides you (8'p) Sucks that I'm too light to fly it, but I've kicked my @$$ at the gym for too long to gain that weight back!
Lol Portalis… that link is a FAIL.
I don't care about jet packs, so long as we have hover boards in 5 years
There have been jetpacks since the '60s, actually. The military experimented with them, but they were too noisy to be useful in the field.
Get a life people it's a comic for crying out loud. I think it's called "Poetic Licence"
Poetic License*
The spelling 'licence' is more common in some countries.
The thing is, they DID make jetpacks. The problem is they turned out to kinda suck in real life.
