Man flys by lung power

" In 1934 the Berliner Illustrirte Zeitung ran an article about a miraculous new invention that allowed men to fly using their lung power as the sole source of propulsion. Users of the device simply blew into a box attached to their chest. This activated rotors that created a powerful suction effect that then lifted the user up into the air. Skis were worn as landing gear. Accompanying the article was a photograph of the device in action. The picture was picked up and widely distributed in the United States by International News Photo."I wonder if MSFS can model this in 2004?http://www.museumofhoaxes.com/top1004.htmlhttp://saltydogfly2.avsim.net/images/avsim_sig.jpg
