By Peter Holley Peter Holley Technology reporter Email Bio Follow March 13 at 3:58 PM View this post on Instagram Introducing the Speeder™ The world's first Jet-powered, flying motorcycle. PRE-ORDER NOW: https://jetpackaviation.
The speeds and heights may sound far-fetched, but company officials say they’re already testing a one-third scale prototype. The plan, they say, is to roll out 20 full-size Speeders ready for customers next year.“This is a compact machine, like a motorcycle, that can take off vertically from your front lawn or driveway and land on the other side of the city in a similar position,” said Mayman, who famously made a jet-pack flight around the Statue of Liberty in 2015.
Unlike with conventional aircraft, the Federal Aviation Administration does not require a pilot’s license to operate a “powered ultralight” craft. The agency’s rules require instead that ultralights operate during daylight hours in open areas and limit their use to sport and recreation.
Let's see how it works
Hope a drunkard doesn't get his hands on one
James Bond, here I come....
Not impressed
Killing the planet with jet planes isn't enough; glacial melt will now be helped along by jet motorcycles. What's next, jet cars? JustTalkedToEarth SheSaidHelp
Cali weed does amazing things.
The New Green Deal will not allow these vehicles!
😱
Like driving a real motorcycle is not dangerous enough. Now you’ll be able to fly one without having to take flying lessons.
Lol. What could go wrong? You'll want to peruse this feed for many examples of things that will go wrong.
Finally, the Jetson's generation is on the way.
Sounds like a missile...
Maybe the jet engines can blow all the poop off the sidewalks at San Francisco
Want one. Can't afford it. Oh well.
Sounds safe
They be killin' the planet in style!
I am building a public bathroom where you don’t have to touch anything.
We can't drive in two dimensions. I have an idea. Let's try adding a dimension.
45 mile range is a bit pish, but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t want one of these more than I want practically *anything* right now. 🙄
And people are afraid of drones.
What could go wrong?
Beats all of the electric scooters 🛴 on the streets!
To work Better on flying wall! many will be happy!¿
Nah!... let’s stick to coal.
Please don’t!
The Jetsons are here.
What could possibly go wrong?
California will put a stop to that as it probably use fossil fuels.
What could possibly go wrong?
Clo
Call me back when the price comes down by a factor of 50 or so.
One step closer to catching up to all those sci-fi movies
Kindly keep it out of controlled airspace.
An Oppressor? GTA5 GTAO
Sounds like 100% hype to me.
More carbon
Wait'll you get a load of the helmet. Imagine what it'll look like protecting a skull from Impact at 650 miles an hour
I can see the headlines now: “carpool full of commuters burnt to a crisp as local man on a jet-bike attempts to exit 405 in front of them from five lanes to the left”
Dreams come to reality.
I foresee all kinds of problems with that....including eye damage and other carnage from debris being blasted through the air to bystanders and property.
We'll see...
Everyone did tell the Washington post that weed is legal in California?
Like
Let’s hope it’s louder than existing motorbikes 😩😩😩😩😩
Yes, I will call that a man driven drone! Let's see how it goes.
Star wars 😁
Wow, I wonder what it feels like to ride one of those. Haha. It must be great! I can’t imagine what will happen to our life in the next 50 years. There must be more and more sophisticated technologies which will amaze human even more. Madam, AndiniMku MJInter2018
What a great idea. It's not as if the human body isn't indestructible.
I would be more impressed if it used alternative fuel source🙄
Or in other words they’re building a flying chip dip maker.
Uh oh... AOC and the liberals wont like this. If they ever get power back, these will be banned. But cool article. realDonaldTrump DonaldJTrumpJr SpeakerPelosi
The ejector-seat on that thing is going to be wild.
Maybe this company can go to Michigan and fix their drinking water
First thought : how about a coffee stand....
Does it reverse climate change? No? Then whofuckingcares?
I want one
Want one....
These guys are playing GTA V way too much! Lol
God bless capitalism.
So we'd have moto-air-crashes?
Yet we still can't figure out how to ensure people have access to clean water
People can't even drive without staring at their phone, now is not a good time to finally give us flying cars
I look forward to the videos of this vehicle in YouTube compilations called, 'Fatal Speeder Crashes POV'
No lasers? Meh
