This is a short story behind the World’s first and only practical commercial Jetpack, the company and its people as they ready themselves for an upcoming public event to be held in China in early December 2015.

Named as one of Time magazine’s Top 50 inventions for 2010, the Martin Jetpack, the world’s first practical jetpack, with potential usage spanning search and rescue, military, recreational and commercial applications, which can be operated both manned and unmanned.

This “fly on the wall” video follows the team at Martin Aircraft for a week as they complete the final series of flight tests for the new P12.3 Jetpack and take it through its paces in preparation for deployment to its first public display.

The Martin Jetpack is a disruptive technology, much like the helicopter was when first developed, with substantial capabilities and is able to be flown by a pilot or via remote control. The Jetpack can take off and land vertically (VTOL) and because of its small dimensions, it can operate in confined spaces such as close to or between buildings, near trees or in confined areas that other VTOL aircraft such as helicopters cannot access.

We hope you enjoy this video.
