Yesterday on Twitter a few people noticed a stream of light above the
evening Los Angeles skyline. Some called it a UFO, others thought it
was a meteor. Either way, it was seen all over the city flying down
directly into downtown, some even thought it hit a building. In fact,
it was just a trio of winged suit flyers (Jon DeVore, Mike Swanson,
and Andy Farrington) shooting across LA to get up close to the last
Super Moon of this decade.

@LAPDHQ later fired off a tweet saying

PSA: A meteor did not crash into Downtown Los Angeles, and no, it’s
not an alien invasion...just a film shoot. This is Tinseltown after
all.

The Future Of Mobility Is Wingsuits, reads some silicon valley VC’s
email inbox pitch tomorrow morning.

It came out this morning that Red Bull was behind the stunt, because
of course they were. It might have been a little bit out of touch to
make this flight quite so visible, or have the flight path travel so
close to a building. Maybe making people afraid isn’t the best way to
promote your brand, Red Bull.

It’s really difficult to get across Los Angeles in a car, so maybe
this wing suit thing isn’t such a bad idea. This seems much more
plausible than flying cars coming any time soon.



What sort of FAA clearance do you need to
"fly" thru that airspace? I remember "Lawn Chair
Larry" got in a lot of trouble for "flying" thru
the LA area......
