Swiss "Jetman" Yves Rossy, the first man in the world to fly in a winged jet-pack suit, pausing after announcing his decision to cancel what would have been his first U.S. flight, saying he didn't have enough time to train, May 6, 2011 at Guano Point at Grand Canyon West, Arizona on the Hualapai Indian Reservation. The Grand Canyon would have been the first U.S. jet pack flight for Rossy, who has previously used his jet-powered wing to fly across Lake Geneva and the English Channel.
