Not LEVEL flight. Still need a parachute to survive the end of the flight. Still want my jet pack...

That pretty much says it. Don't know if this has been posted before. I'm on dialup so can't load videos, but I let one go while eating dinner and what little I saw was amazing. Look around, there seem to be a lot of vids scattered about.

So, have fun if you haven't been there. And will someone with broadband please tell me how he lands the thing?

Yeah, I usually let 3 or 4 go, so I'm getting better

Thanks PSM, I couldn't figure it out.
