Around this time, a Russian fellow identifying himself as A. Andreev filed a patent for an oxygen- and methane-fueled flying device that could be worn on the back, with roughly three-foot wings extending to either side of the hopeful pilot... 'This is the first device of its kind that had any engineering detail at all,...'
The wing has no steering controls, no flaps, no rudder. Yves uses his body to steer the wing. He's acting as a human fuselage
the subtle body movements he uses to maintain flight – and perform his loops, rolls, and other maneuvers – mimics a bird of prey. all of the flight control is done with body movement. There are no ailerons or other flight control surfaces.
