| 104 | Human flying apparatus | US14552112 | 2014-11-24 | US09120023B1 | 2015-09-01 | Elizabeth Wales Burroughs |
| The lever, wheel and axle, pulley, wedge, screw, and inclined plane are the six Simple Machines of the Classical era. Over 2000 years ago a man from Syracuse used them to create a way to move water against the pull of gravity. The Archimedes' screw is still a standard for simple efficiency. In homage to those early machines and the dreamers who built them, the Human Flying Apparatus provides a carriage, wheels and an axle, a harness, and a braking and steering system and, in specific embodiments, thrusters, all suspended from a single rail, which allows a human being to soar in simulated flight that is safe, sustained, and suitable for all skill levels.“For once you have tasted flight, you will walk the Earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you long to return.” -Leonardo Da Vinci | ||||||
