Rocket Belt

Rocket Belt




TAM is the only company in the world that produces a complete turn-key package of a flying rocket belt, custom-made to the pilot’s weight and body size. (up to 300 lbs. / 136 Kg). We use the most advanced technology and aerospace materials , including:

1. A fully-tested, custom-made flying rocket belt,
2. This belt has been proved to be the most stable design and easier to fly
3. A special machine to make our own unlimited supply of rocket fuel
4. Hands-on training in the process and the equipment
5. Flight training of 10 flights in your own rocket belt
6. Maintenance and setup training
7. 24/7 expert support
8. Housing and food are included during training

The total price for all this is only $250,000 usd.

If you’re interested in recourping your investement, you can make a lot of money flying this machine in special events, promotions, advertising, elections campaigns, concerts, movies, TV commercials etc.

This is the kind of flying machine that millions of people saw in the James Bond 007 movies and at the opening ceremony of the Los Angeles Olympic Games in 1984. Until now, there has been only one company doing this, and they charge at least $20,000 per flight!

For many years only one rocket belt was flying in all the world but in 2005 TAM ended the monopoly of more than 20 years.

This machine cold be a gold mine in the right hands!!.

* Important:

Be aware of people that offer plans, parts or a rocket belt that has not flown and tested because you could be killed.

The Rocket Belt is NOT a machine that you can make and fly easily, if someone offers to you plans or parts to make a "cheap" Rocket Belt ask for a demonstration and see an actual flight, don't be the test pilot of a deadly machine.




History

The Rocket Belt is the most spectacular flying machine ever developed, period! It is a small personal propulsion device strapped to the back of an individual, enabling a man or woman to rapidly and safely fly or leap over short distances like small rivers or ravines , landing upright.

During the early 1960's the U.S. military seriously studied these devices as potential aids for combat soldiers to use in tight tactical situations and to cross minefields.

The idea of a workable rocket belt is credited to Wendell Moore, an engineer working at Bell Aerosystems.
The Army negotiated with Bell for the fabrication of the SRLD (small rocket lifting device) and a contract was awarded to the Army's Transportation, Research and Engineering Command (TRECOM) for military feasibility studies and trials. Moore was named, Bell's Technical Director for the project. Under the contract, a 280-lb thrust rocket motor was made and tested. Peroxide was chosen as the safest fuel for personnel use as no combustion took place. There was only expulsion of highly pressurized oxygen and water vapor, while the operator wore a form-fitting fiberglass corset for safety.

Many tethered flights were conducted, with Moore as the operator, at the Bell plant at Buffalo.

Harold Graham, was the first pilot in the world to perform a rocket belt free flight, on April 20, 1961.

After 36 tethered flights, Graham flew freely successfully at 7 to 10-mph, for 13 seconds, over a distance of 112 feet.

That first rocket belt cost Bell Aerosystems $250,000 dollars in 1960!!! Adjusted for inflation, this would be many millions of dollars today.



The 20 + second duration of the rocket fuel required for the belt was found to be too short-lived for the device to be practical for combat, and the idea was abandoned. However this machine proved to be a fantastic and spectacular crowd pleaser for promotions and advertising.
