Ky Michaelson's Rocket Chair

The Rocketman's newest creation to come out of his shop is his Rocket Chair. In 1965 Bell built a Rocket Chair using a standard chair out of the Bell commissary (pictured below). Ky Has come up with innovative Rocket Chair that has four nozzles for added stability. The chair has a 500 lb thrust rocket motor on it and carries seven gallons of hydrogen peroxide. The Rocket Chair will have a flight time of over 30 seconds and will be easier to fly then the standard Rocket Belt.
