The video above was taken in July 2012 and shows a vehicle (dubbed the Tandem-Duct Aerial Demonstrator) utilising ejector dynamics to allow a pilot to manoeuvre a ‘hover bike’ with the use of ducted-fans. The incredible machine was first presented at the American Helicopter Society Future Vertical Lift Conference in San Francisco by Aerofex earlier this year.
