About Indonesia

Indonesia is the fourth largest country in the world is home to more than 195 million people. Mainly Muslims — with substantial Christian, Hindu and Buddhist minorities. Indigenous tribes still exist in Borneo to Irian Jaya in Eastern Indonesia. The presence of their pagan ancestry can still be seen, heard and felt by those who dare to breach the tourist frontiers.

While much of Indonesia's allure lies in its rich cultural tapestry and untamed wilderness, its cities and resorts are also famed for world-class visitor facilities. Divers are a fast growing breed of special visitors to Indonesia's many shores.

Jetpack

Jetpack usually worn on the back, that are propelled by jets of escaping gases (or in some cases water) to let a single user propel him or herself into the air or fly.

SAFETY
Safety has been a key consideration in all aspects of the development of the Martin Jetpack. We look to enhance safety through design, manufacture, training, operations and dedicated safety systems. The Jetpack is “fly by wire” so unlike other aircraft including helicopters it is relatively easy to operate and with its ballistic parachute system that can safely recover the aircraft from a few meters above the ground it will be one of the most safest light aircraft on the market.

Pilot Protection
The pilot is protected by the pilot module and the structure of the Jetpack. The pilot module includes a rollover bar, frontal protection and arm restraint. The structure of the Jetpack provides protection to the pilot from the rear and side, and the landing gear provides protection from below.

Parachute
A key safety system is the parachute system. This is a ballistic parachute system, with ballistic extraction and inflation of the chute. This leads to very quick chute opening, which enables the pilot to be saved in the case of a catastrophic failure down to a low height.

Simplicity of Design
The design of the Jetpack has been kept as simple as possible. There is a low overall component count which aids reliability and overall safety.

Ducted fan
The use of ducted fans has a fundamental safety advantage over propellers and rotors. The tips of the blades are contained within the duct and are less of a safety hazard than exposed blades. This makes it safer for people near the aircraft, and reduces the risk of damage due to propellers or rotors coming into contact with objects.
Ease of Flight

A key component of aircraft safety comes from the ease of flight. The Jetpack flight control system is computer controlled and stabilised. With the current software load if the controls are released during flight the Jetpack achieves and maintains an upright attitude and maintains height (enters a hover). During normal operations the system automatically maintains the desired height during manoeuvres.
