IT was a flight of fancy for all involved: The pilot flying the iconic Spitfire warbird - and the man strapped to a carbon-fibre wing with a jetpack.

 

Adventurer Yves 'Jetman' Rossy took to the skies in his flying wing with the historic Spitfire - upon which the hopes and prayers of all of Britain were pinned during the Battle of Britain - above Switzerland this weekend at an annual aviation festival at Geneva's Bex aerodrome.
