New photo Jet suit racing set to take flight in 2019

The British creator of a jet engine-powered suit which hurtles through the sky at 32mph has unveiled plans for a series of airborne races starting next year.  

British inventor Richard Browning said the events would begin in 2019 featuring men and women from different sporting backgrounds.

Yesterday he was pictured taking to the skies again in a demonstration flight at Bentwaters Park, in Woodbridge, Suffolk. 

He said: 'The idea a race around a kind of air race circuit, in three dimensions with 1,000 horse-power jet suits, it's going to be astounding and phenomenal.'

HOW DOES THE 'IRON MAN' JET SUIT WORK?

British inventor Richard Browning formally debuted his technology in March, with an early-version suit called Daedalus.

The technology combines body mounted miniaturised jet-engines, with a specially designed exo-skeletal suit. 

This allows the pilot to vertically take off and fly using the human body to control the flight.

The four arm-mounted gas turbine engines and two hip-mounted gas turbine engines provide enough lift to enable a person capable of holding their body weight for long periods of time to fly.

In demonstrations, the suit has hovered just above the ground at low speed.

The suit, which has a record speed of 32 miles per hour (51 kph), is made up of five miniature jet engines mounted on the pilot's arms and back. 

It has frequently been compared to the one worn by Robert Downey Jr in the Marvel superhero 'Iron Man' film trilogy.

Last year he claimed the Guinness World Records title for the fastest speed in a body-controlled jet engine power suit.

Browning achieved a speed of 32.02mph when he set the new record at Lagoona Park in Reading.  

His first two attempts were unsuccessful, as he was unable to get enough momentum.

But on his third and final try he managed to get up to speed – before mistiming a turn and dropping into a lake. 

Browning put the jet suit on sale in a London department store in July with a £340,000 ($443,360) price tag.

For an eye-watering price, nine consumers can order a personalized version of the 'Iron Man' suit, along with a crash course on how to fly it.

'The Jet Suit is the equivalent to the launch of the very first aeroplane,' Bosse Myhr, menswear and technology director at Selfridges, said at the time .

'We are on the cusp of an era where aeronautical technology can finally be in the hands of the consumer and we are proud to be the first to offer this.' 

The suit, which weighs about 59lbs, is also integrated with electronics and 3D-printed parts.

Running on jet fuel or diesel, it has an altitude limit of 12,000 feet (3,658 metres). 

The inventor is a former commodities trader who first developed the suit in his garage with friends around three years ago.

The Royal Marines reservist, from Wiltshire, said he has long been fascinated by the possibilities of human flight propulsion and worked on his flight suit for three years before debuting it in April.

He was inspired by his father, an aeronautical engineer who worked at helicopter manufacturer Westland but wanted to be an inventor.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.

Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”

Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
