Jetman Dubai experiments with human flight using a carbon fiber, jet engine-powered wingsuit designed by Swiss military-trained pilot Yves Rossy. Previously, pilots had to be dropped from an aircraft or jump from extreme heights to take flight, but February 14, 2020 marked a huge milestone. A pilot launched from the ground and climbed to 3,000 feet for the first time!
