Yves 'Jetman' Rossy has completed his first flight in Asia choosing the iconic Mount Fuji, Japan as a symbolic backdrop for this milestone flight.<br /><br />Flying above the famous snow-capped peak, at up to 185mp/h (300km/h) looping and rolling with his jet powered carbon-Kevlar® wing, Yves Rossy enjoyed a unique perspective of the famous landmark most people only see from the ground, or simply from TV and photos.<br /><br />Yves Rossy commented:<br />"Flying here for me is a dream. It is such a contrast flying free with just a wing on my back, compared to being enclosed in a cockpit as an airline pilot. It is hard to describe the emotions and feeling of having an opportunity like this, it's spiritual, it is immense. I am the lucky guy who gets to do this, but I hope I can motivate the next generation of forward thinkers to do something different, to strive and achieve their goals... even if it seems impossible."<br /><br />Following the recent tour of the Breitling Jet Team in Japan, Breitling, a watch brand synonymous with aviation, is pleased to support these outstanding achievements, which are part of activities marking the 150th anniversary of diplomatic relationships between Switzerland and Japan.<br /><br />Follow Breitling on:<br />- Facebook -- http://www.facebook.com/Breitling<br />- Twitter -- http://twitter.com/breitlingnews - @BreitlingNews<br />- Pinterest -- http://www.pinterest.com/Breitling<br />- http://www.breitling.com<br />_________________________________________________<br /><br />Best extreme sports video contests now on http://www.ridersmatch.com<br /><br />JOIN RIDERS MATCH :<br />Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/riders.match<br />Twitter : https://twitter.com/#!/ridersmatch<br />Google + : https://plus.google.com/106087066887108100503<br /><br />CONTACT US :<br />contact@ridersmatch.com
