PLYMOUTH SOUND, United Kingdom - That wasn't Tony Stark flying about the English Channel on May 1, though his flight technique resembled Iron Man.It was a test pilot from Gravity Industries, the creators of a jet suit that allows the wearer to take flight while propelling them with thrusters on the arms and back.The Royal Marines facilitated the flight on Saturday, trying to determine if the suit would be beneficial to maritime military operations.Video shared by the Royal Navy showed the test pilot taking off from a smaller boat and soaring towards a much larger ship.
After sticking the landing, the pilot is seen flying to another part of the ship.Finally, the pilot is seen taking off again and landing on the smaller boat.Richard Browning.
