That must be physically exhausting ... but mentally exhilarating. :)

Incredible! Beautiful to watch. How fast do you think they are "flying?"

I would love to do that! If only I was a younger man. :-(

I could imagine the army using these for Special Forces missions, though I am sure these wings are not cheap, so there would have to be a way to retrieve these when the mission was done. There is 10 minu4es worth of fuel in them. It they used 5 minutes worth to get where they are going, and they could land without using the parachute, they would have another 5 minutes of fuel to get to altitude and glide to where they are safe, pulling the 'chute then.
