      @@future5889 ---- or, there are some people who suspect it to be a large drone with some kind of mannequin strapped in.
      I know for faxt that there are large heavy lift drones that are able to pick up around 40 or 50 lbs dead weight off the ground and be stable in flight, at speed around 20 mph with a range of around 5-6 miles out of sight of the operator. If the drone gets out of range from the operator, the mission has already been plotted into the onboard guidance system and the drone will continue to its target, take whatever action it has been programmed to do then turn around and return home. Without assistance. But will lock back into the signal when in range and notifies the remote control device and will go "home" and even land itself.

Three off-the-shelf turbines for RC aircraft, generating about 367 Ibs of thrust, mounted on individual swiveling aluminum frames around the shoulders, and a main aluminum frame with harness, fuel tanks, and supporting electronics and gear.
    Basically anyone who knows how to weld, and has an idea of how thrust and gravity works could build one, the only constraint is money.

      It would take a tremendous amount of skill and practice to operate such a vehicle, though speaking on just inflight control and overall characteristics, it probably wouldn’t be much worse than those jetski-powered water jet packs. Assuming a design that mounts the jets at or above shoulder height, it would fly somewhat similar to a drone, V-22 osprey, or the jetski jetpack mentioned above, with the center of gravity below the center of thrust/lift at all times.
      Initial flights would consist of MANY hovering and low-altitude practice flights before going higher. If you put your mind to it, anything is possible.

    I suspect that it is a remote controlled drone with a lightweight mannequin dressed to look like a person. In the capture videos the jet pack in the image looks like a square backpack strapped onto a person's back. The jetpacks manufactured by those private companies are larger and surround the pilot flying the jetpacks. Utilizing a light weight mannequin is how it can fly to higher altitudes with a longer flight time.

    I don't know, if the manni quin only has an 8 minute runtime, it may theoretically be capable of flying up to 6000 ft agl, but I'm pretty sure it would take much longer for it to climb to that altitude than 8 minutes. Remember, it not only has to have enough battery capacity to reach these altitudes, but enough to bring it back down also. If someone managed to get a done up there and it were to run out of battery, it would fall to earth. Being that it was sighted over LA, a densely populated urban area, it would have been found quickly. That is if it didn't injure someone, or damage property upon crashing to the ground. The latter of which is more probable than not, which would only lead to it being found quicker.

    Having some lone inventor designing and building an advanced jetpack makes a nice story, but the only way I see that happening is:
    1) engineer who quit or retired from aeronautical firm - best would be if he had worked for one of the two jetpack companies.
    2) he is independently wealthy - which means he had a lot of stock options at his former employer, or he inherited it, OR he's working for someone wealthy
    3) has a hidden place in the hills to launch and land at .
    Problems with this:
    1) Flying around LA has got him noticed. IF he bought six turbojet engines at one time any time in the recent past, someone should remember them being ordered by an entity that is not a recognized aircraft research firm.
    2) Hard to find a place anywhere near LA you could land and take off without being noticed even if you made the jetpack completely silent
    3) Since he has not been noticed flying elsewhere in LA, his base is probably close to KLAX.
    Which leads to:
    1) It's more likely a drone/mannequin combination.
    2) best way to hide takeoff/landing location is roof of high building
    3) It has to be near KLAX due to range issues
    I'd look for a high building near KLAX, probably a residential building with insecure roof access, where the perpetrator could be a resident or the building manager; OR an office building where they could be a tenant or building maintenance worker.

      Launching from a high rooftop would definitely lessen the chance of being heard or seen. Even still, those turbines have got to be pretty loud. Then again, maybe this is the reason for the flights being in the vicinity of LAX ?
      If you think about it, being near to a busy airport would be the least likely place anyone would notice, or pay attention to the noise generated by a jet engine. Around an airport like LAX the sounds of jet engines are near constant, to a point we don't even pay attention to them when near. It would be much easier to takeoff without being noticed near LAX. By people on the ground anyway.

    • @TheCrazyMoparDude68
      @TheCrazyMoparDude68 4 місяці тому

      No, you are wrong. It is actually a common slang word used within many engineering companies, especially those companies in the aerospace, military aviation, and military technology. It describes a department of specialists that develop new technology without having to report through the normal “chain of command”. Meaning they can continue to work on their projects without having to report to the bosses every step of the way and can get the project done much quicker. And these groups are comprised of the best and brightest of the companies and tend to work on classified technology.
      And there is no company called Skunk Works either. There is a division of Lockheed Martin that is called the Skunk Works, but it isn’t a separate company all,of it’s own. The division was first called Lockheed Advanced Project Development Division and was formed during WW2 and was before Lockheed merged with Martin Aviation. The name was “changed” to Skunk Works when they were working on the P-80 Shooting Star and had a large circus tent set up near a plastic company in which they did most of their work in. The tent was close enough to the plastic manufacturer that the smell from the various chemicals would waft into the tent and stay resulting in the tent having a really horrible smell inside. The terrible smell made the R&D workers think about the Skonk Works factory that was in the Lil Abner comic strip and soon they began to refer to that tent as the Skunk Works. And the name stuck and eventually Lockheed started using that name in place of the advance development department. Although I believe the official name of the department is still Lockheed Martins Advance Development Department, Skunk Works is just easier to say.
      Now the term Skunk Works is used to describe any small and dedicated team of R&D engineers/scientists that works on special or secret projects without direct oversight of the higher ups.

    I have a few pics of a jetpack man, flying very high over the New Jersey shore during the dawn hour, August, 2018. I was taking pics with a long tele lens, I heard the craft, noting the unusual sound of the engine source, and directed my 400mm lens skyward. I know what I saw wasn't an electric drone or a small engine as you'd find on an RC plane; the sound was too distinctly different to be some hobbyist prank. The pilot had on an oversized suit, and there was a big pack on his back. He was also flying for a while. I saw him heading north, and a few minutes later saw him flying south. Totally unexplainable to me.

      So, there could be two jet dudes? Or he moved from NJ to CA at some point, since yours was before these ones. Was your sighting also near an airport? Or flightpath? Im not familiar enough with US geography.. Can you guesstimate the length of your sighting and how high he was? Hella weird anyway, I say this as a hobby photographer and astronomer myself. Im somewhat familiar on what goes on in the sky, but jetpack people are new to me!

      or just a baloon. its definatley a man in a jetpack flying 3k feet while going to and from a airport,,,, they cant go that high or that far. they can fly for a few minutes at most. if DARPA and these entertainment companies cant do this its definitely not a guy working out of his garage like some gullible ppl think.....its not a "board engineer" its a drone with a baloon or just a baloon like that haloween display that looked just like it. the fbi already pretty much said it was a baloon with 99% certainty

    I think you are grossly overestimated how hard it is to build a jetpack. 'Gravity' was just some smart bankers messing around with model gas turbines, they got flying pretty quick. I'm an aviation engineer and could definitely make one in my garage. Theres lots of people with my level of knowledge and finances.

    • @volvo09
      @volvo09 4 місяці тому

      Yeah each of those model engines makes like 60+ lbs of thrust. Fuel usage is high, but you can certainly do it, and that's exactly what "gravity" used with their jet suit.

    Those jet packs have been working and available to buy for over 10 years now. Some small company in CA sells them for 300thousand+ but theyre very difficult to use and just to get them off the ground safety takes months of practice on a special platform that stops you from burning asphalt to a crisp

      If his base is near enough to the airport, his noises would be masked by planes. Nobody would notice. My other theory is his base being on the sea, but that might be too far, same as the desert. Somebody said it could be on roof of tall building, but it would have to be inhabited (top floors at least) at certain times to go unnoticed.

    I’ve seen videos of people using paramotors to go above 20,000ft. Maybe if clouds obscured the view, someone could’ve mistaken a patamotor for a jet pack? I’m going to watch the rest of this to see if there’s any video/photos but I think it would be a ton cheaper to build one of those rather than building a jet pack

      6000 feet is surprisingly doable. There are mountains around LA taller than that, and people go camping at that elevation for fun. I did it as a child. As long as you try to set a world record in the 100-meter dash while you're up there, it's fine.

    My wife and I saw the jet pack guy in March 2020. We were near Runyon canyon and saw him to the south of us and we were confused as heck so we didn't say anything to anyone about it. It was at a distance so Initially we thought it was a drone but then we noticed it looked like a person. A few months later we saw the article about the pilot sighting someone on a jetpack and we were like "WE KNEW IT!"
    It looked like he was flying up from a rooftop and then he kinda hovered in place for a minute. Nowhere near 6000 feet though. More like maybe 50 feet above the buildings or so
