I took this photo a few days ago and also drew the rough sketch...

This is dedicated to Yves Rossy alias "JET MAN" (also known as "Fusion Man"). I admire him so much.

He is a Swiss pilot, inventor and aviation enthusiast. He is nicknamed "Jet Man" and "Fusion Man" for being the first person to achieve sustained human flight using a jet-powered fixed wing strapped to his back, reaching a top speed of 304 km/h (189 mph). He developed and built a system comprising a back pack with rigid aeroplane-type carbon-fiber wings with a span of about 2.4 metres (7.9 ft), powered by four attached jet engines. He already flew across the English Channel, the Strait of Gibraltar and over the Alps. Next, Rossy plans to fly across the Grand Canyon in Arizona in the USA...

Across the sky

A poem by Katie Gabrielle

Up in the clouds
Way up high
Flies a man
That soars
Across the sky
All the people
Down Below
Wish they
All could
Fly like Joe
Joe's his name
And that's no lie
In his new flying machine
Like a dream
Wherever you are
Look way up in the sky
You'll see Joe
And his wings
Waving HI
