Thunderpack Personal Propulsion System

Thunderbolt Aerosystems today announced the release of its THUNDERPACK, a personal propulsion system capable of sustaining flight for longer than ever before achieved and concurrently unveiled plans to develop a jet powered THUNDERJET with exponentially greater capability.

Bench tests of the company’s THUNDERPACK have provided up to 75 seconds of flight time, a 300% increase over what other systems offer, and initial conceptual plans for the THUNDERJET system promise ten-fold increases over state of the art rocket belt capabilities.

Yeah, nothing like a tort that involves lawyers and a thirty foot fall to the ground

 

[Edofnor]

I will only buy a jetpack if it's endorsed by Brendan Fraser the Rocketeer.

 

[JuggerNaught]

we have had cars around for a century and have people that still havent mastered them.

we really don't need people who can fly

Brendan Fraser wasnt the Rocketeer.

 

[SL83]

That really isn't practical.

We need the ones from Tribes that don't blow dirt and dust all over the fucking place.

 

[Edofnor]

Brendan Fraser wasnt the Rocketeer.

He is now. Who the fuck has heard of Bill Campbell?

 

[Buk Naked]

Couldn't they film somewhere that they didn't kick up a giant dust cloud?

 

[Putrid]

I would rather have one of these...

You can carry more ammo and stuff like groceries.

 

[Darkstrand]

DAMN HOW HEAVY IS THAT THING

 

[PrinceVince]

Man i'd so love to get my groceries in that flying platform. Find a nice parking spot, grab the stuff and take off gracefully.

 

[Putrid]

Kids do the darndest things....

whatever happened to that one jetpack that used to be shown all the time in black and white newsreels? That looked like a real jetpack, not bottles of compressed air

i imagine if a guy fucks up with a jetpack he more than likely takes only himself out

doubt it.

people will still used roads for direction. a person fucking up w/jetpack over a highway, mall, school, can't control it as it gets too close to the flight path of the local airport.

there are way too many ways that a lot of people could get hurt.

That's not just compressed air, it's probably hydrogen peroxide or some other peroxide fuel.
