Here is a video of the Martin Jetpack in action. The jetpack is classified as an ultralight aircraft, so no need for a pilot's license. It can travel 31 miles at a maximum speed of 63 mph, go as high as 8000 feet in hover, and has a ballistic parachute for emergencies. It is powered by a 2.0 liter two-stroke engine. Looks like the cost is over $60,000!

Bruce - when you get this Jetpack - i'm recommending the
ballistic parachute option:
