Formation Flying over Dubai, Hello Jetman…

Those magnificent men and their strap on flying machines are back once again to thrill the world with their high speed aerial antics. With nothing more than a jet powered wing and a prayer Yves Rossy and Vince Reffet took to the skies to fly in formation with the big bird, the A380 Airbus. A not so simple proposition when you consider the A380 jet intakes are large, very large. Don’t be getting close to the worlds largest slicing dicing turbines.

Flying in formation high over the Palm Jumeirah and with the Dubai skyline as a spectacular backdrop the Jetmen soar alongside, becoming the wingmen for the pride of the Emirates fleet.

Presented for your viewing pleasure are the latest videos of the Jetman in action, a formation flight between that largest and smallest flying machines currently zooming about our skies. Sit back relax and prepare to be spirited away for just a moment.
