Publisher's Synopsis

From Icarus to Iron Man, the sky has always tempted and taunted mankind, daring those brave enough to reach up and conquer it. But one man has gone further than most. Richard Browning's story is one of ground-breaking innovation. Building an aviation business from his garage, he has invented a whole new form of personal flight, a dream previously reserved for the pages of science fiction. His iconic jet suit has captured the imaginations of billions around the world, triggered ongoing developments in technology and engineering, and inspired a new generation of creative minds to pursue their dreams.
