Well it *is* 2010

You know I'm sick of traffic and parking when reports of personal jetpacks going on sale made me consider the actual logistics of it and whether I could afford one.

Pro: No traffic. Mega-awesome entries every time.
Pro and con: I'd be "the jetpack guy"
Con: Where do you store a jetpack OH GOD THIS IS PARKING ALL OVER AGAIN!

Also, even if it's classified as an ultralight I'm pretty sure it'd be nine kinds of illegal to fly 'em in an urban area. WHY DOES THE MAN HATE FREEDOM SO

Canberra has endless numbers of hot air balloons flying about, especially over places they really shouldn't. If those cowboys can get the appropriate permits, so could a gentleman jetpacker.
