Mayman himself then piloted it around the Statue of Liberty in 2015, garnering global media attention.Its latest project is the Speeder, a futuristic air vehicle that resembles a motorbike for the air and is aimed initially at the defense sector.  During the podcast David speaks about what the company has achieved with the jetpack and the development of the new Speeder aircraft.
