	Sky diving is great fun, but it is rather dangerous,
there are only a few places where it can be done, and there
is a lot of waiting around and packing of parachutes for only
a little sky diving.
Much of the fun of sky diving without the disadvantages might be
has by flying in a low speed wind tunnel facing up.  The system
would work as follows:

	1. The wind tunnel maintains an upward velocity of about
140 miles per hour upwards.  This means that a person in the
standard face down spread arms and legs position used in sky
diving will rise but in other positions will fall.

	2. The region of flight will be bounded on all sides by
netting that will prevent injury even if hit at a considerable
velocity.

	3. Naturally, the bigger the area of flight, the greater
the fun.

	4. As in sky diving, there are many maneuvers and stunts
possible both individually and in groups.

	5. Probably it will not be necessary to wear specially
clothing and protective head gear.
