Own a Piece of American Ingenuity: The Jetpack JB12 Auction

As Americans, we cherish freedom, independence, and the relentless pursuit of innovation. Now, as our nation heads into one of its most crucial election weeks, you have the rare opportunity to own a piece of history that embodies these very ideals. JetPack Aviation Corporation’s JB12, the ultimate expression of personal flight and American ingenuity, is up for auction starting October 30, 2024, and closing November 6—just as the country elects its next leader.

The Spirit of Freedom, Reinvented

The JB12 JetPack is not just another flying machine; it’s a statement. Powered by six kerosene/diesel turbojet engines that produce an astounding 100 pounds of thrust each, this incredible device is built to break barriers—literally and figuratively. It represents the culmination of JetPack Aviation’s quest for the safest, most advanced personal flight systems ever designed. This isn’t a run-of-the-mill gadget. It’s a collector’s item that stands for freedom, ingenuity, and America’s unparalleled ability to push the envelope of innovation.

Imagine strapping on a 90-pound machine that can thrust you up to speeds of 120 mph, with a flight time of up to 8 minutes. The JB12’s six-engine configuration isn’t just for speed; it offers redundancy, ensuring that this JetPack is the safest model ever created. It’s a marvel of engineering, balancing power and agility with a computer-controlled throttle system that adjusts engine thrust, all while giving the pilot full manual control over pitch and roll. Thrust vectoring provides yaw control, turning you into the master of the skies.

A Testament to American Ingenuity

The JB12 is more than just a machine; it’s a testament to the pioneering spirit that has made America great. Created by JetPack Aviation Corporation, a company founded and run by engineers driven by passion, the JB12’s journey from concept to completion is a story of perseverance, much like the American dream itself.

Although the FAA has decommissioned this particular unit, and it is sold as a display-only piece, it still comes with all the parts that once made it flight-worthy. This JetPack may never take to the skies again, but its presence in your collection will serve as a reminder of what’s possible when freedom and ingenuity come together. It stands as a symbol of what America does best: break boundaries and soar above the rest.

An Auction That Stands for Freedom

In these times, as we fight to keep America true to its core values, participating in this auction is about more than just acquiring a unique piece of aviation history. It’s a celebration of the free market—an auction, the epitome of democracy in action, where everyone has a shot. When you place your bid, you’re not only investing in an iconic aircraft; you’re standing up for the principles of freedom, capitalism, and the American way of life. This election season, owning this JetPack could be the ultimate statement of patriotism.

Starting October 30 and ending November 6, 2024, the JB12 auction will take place in Long Beach, California. Hosted by Airspace Auctions, this event aligns with the very week we, as a nation, choose our next president. What better way to celebrate the spirit of freedom and self-determination than by participating in a free-market auction?
