Richard Lauder

Going Up?

To answer Tim Wilson's question... your Richard Lauder has your jetpack. Or to be more specific, his New Zealand based company Martin JetPack does. The company claims that the jetpacks can deliver up to 200-horsepower using its dual-propeller packs. They also say wearers of the pack will be able to reach up to 2.4 kilometers (1.5 Miles here in the States) and can reach speeds up to 60mph. So pretty soon, you'll be able to put on a tux, strap on a jetpack, and be just like 007.
