  • 2. Díl – Tryskový Muž Aneb Jaké Je to Létat Jako Pták Poměrně Náročnou Otázkou Pro Mě Bylo, Kterým Zajímavým Projektem Nebo Rekordem Začít
    2. díl – Tryskový muž aneb jaké je to létat jako pták Poměrně náročnou otázkou pro mě bylo, kterým zajímavým projektem nebo rekordem začít. Vybírat je opravdu z čeho, protože svět letectví se žene kupředu závratným tempem, takže se ukázalo, že potíží není najít něco, o čem psát, ale naopak vybrat z ohromného množství to, čím začít. Po opravdu náročném rozmýšlení jsem nakonec dospěl k rozhodnutí, že seriál začnu představením toho, co v té nejčistší formě naplňuje odvěkou lidskou touhu létat. Jinak řečeno, začnu hned pěkně zostra. Let ptáků člověka inspiroval odedávna. Důkazy o tom nám poskytují již nejrůznější staré mýty. V průběhu staletí se objevovali vynálezci, kteří navrhovali létajicí aparáty, tu s větším, tu s menším úspěchem. Až konečně bratři Wrightové vstoupili na tu správnou cestu. Jejich následovníci po celém světě zkonstruovali ohromné množství letadel a létajicích zařízení. Žádné z nich však zcela nenaplňovalo onu odvěkou představu o letu, jakým se vyznačují ptáci. Ať už proto, že se člověk vzduchem pohyboval v kovovém obalu, pevně přikurtován k sedačce, jak je tomu v případě letadel, nebo proto, že i když se vzduchem proháněl podobně jako pták, bez nějakých vnějších schránek, bylo to naneštěstí vždy jen jedním směrem, jak by si mohli parašutisté postesknout. Pro dosažení naprosté svobody létání, jak ji zažívají ptáci, by se tedy měly oba tyto přístupy zkombinovat. Zachovat na jedné straně svobodu parašutisty, ale na druhé straně ji doplnit o schopnost plně řídit svůj let, jak jsme na to zvyklí u letadel. Tohoto zadání se chytil švýcarský pilot a dobrodruh – Yves Rossy, známý taktéž jako Jetman, Tryskový muž.

  • Yves “Jetman” Rossy
    Yves “JetMan” Rossy “When I grow up, I’m going to be pilots. With an S”. A profession of faith made as a child that was instilled in Yves Rossy the day he found himself on the branch of a tree unable to get down unaided. Today, he has become Jetman, the first man in the world to attach jet engines to a single wing and fly like Icarus. His story. Yves Rossy was born on the 27 of August 1959 in Neuchâtel (Switzerland). With his head in the clouds and his feet on the ground, Yves Rossy followed a technical apprenticeship and then graduated in engineering. An accomplished sportsman, his past and present pastimes include surfing, water-skiing, wakeboarding, skysurfing, parachuting, aerobatics, motorbike riding, rafting and hang-gliding, to name but a few. Flying under a jet wing is the culmination of a 30 year career interspersed with exploits and firsts. Fighter pilot Discovering the Mirage III supersonic fighter plane was certainly one of the high points of Yves Rossy’s career. He flew the aircraft for 17 years while at the same time piloting historic aircraft such as the Hunter and the Venom, one of England’s earliest jet fighters. In 1991 the idea arose to complete a multi-activity tour of Switzerland in a single day. On 3 July that year he began the day at the controls of a DC-9 and completed the challenge by riding a motorbike, snowboarding, skiing, mountaineering, paragliding, mountain biking, bungee-jumping, flying a helicopter, skydiving and white water rafting, followed by kayaking, driving a racing car, hanggliding, horse riding, running barefoot, water-skiing, wakeboarding and piloting a speed boat.
