1966 Rocket Belt

Here's my favorite Rocket Belt Pilot, Bill Suitor, flying one of the original Bell Aerospace Rocket Belts. This is a film shot at a Raceway park in England. The Bell Aerospace Rocket Belt team was there to demonstrate the flying belt and flew down the track against a Race Car.

@drkijote2 This particular rocket belt was designed and built by Bell Aerospace of Buffalo, NY in 1961. Juan's belt's are really nice, too. I would love to buy one if I had the money.

I understand this man has a book coming out on Oct. 19th of this year. It is intitled " The Rocketbelt Pilot's Manual". The book was written by Bill Suitor (the guy flying around in this video). He is the man who flew in James Bond 007 Thunderball movie, Lost in Space TV series, Superball #1, the 1984 Olympics and many more special events all around the world! It is an in depth look at the technology of this personal flying machine and how to fly one! I already have my book on order! I NEED IT!

@njrocketbelt I still have to order a book. And maybe send it to Bill for an autograph.

Designed and built in the USA.

Featured in many famous movies and TV shows. Nowadays, with Cold Fusion, flight times can be increased from 20-seconds to 200,000 seconds.

The best rocket belt I have seen. Stability, height and control are all excellent. Is this British engineering?
