Where can I buy a personal Jetpack?

I'm looking for a personal jetpack for recreational use. Does anyone have any info on these? I know that they are available but aren't sold widely because of perceived liability.

In the FUTURE.

Is there a word for nostalgia for concepts of the future that we had in the past, like flying cars and hoverboards? Because there should be.

I agree. How about Retro-Futurist?
