Jet Suits The next frontier in human flight

Post by imprecise »



Gravity Industries https://gravity.co/

The suits cost $440,000, but stay at Gravity's facility, where the owners can visit to fly in them. If any clients feel that they want more air time, they can consider signing up to compete in the race series that's scheduled to launch in 2021. Gravity Industries is actively recruiting aspiring drivers on its website.Oct 6, 2020
