"The rocketbelt, a device designed by Bell Aerosystems in the 1960s to be a tactical rescue vehicle for the United States Army, is described here for the first time by one of the machine's original test pilots. Covering everything from service and fueling to step-by-step directions for use, the guide also includes an in-depth technical background of the flying device and a detailed, easily accessible explanation of the science behind jet propelled flight."--Publisher description.
