Jet Suit company [Gravity] founded by Richard Browning has recently made available a training program for people who want to test out and learn to use a Jet Suit, as well as the ability to commission construction of your own Jet Suit, potentially as a way to garner interest in the idea of Jet Suit racing. Pricing is not listed for the training program or suit construction, though estimates for the suit were around 443,000$ two years ago. The website does offer some specs for the suit though, as listed:
Power; 1050bhp
Turbines; 5
RPM; 120,000
Fuel; Jet A1 or Diesel
Dry weight; 27kg
Flight time; 5-10 minutes

The training program experience is also described as such:
Gravity Industries Flight Experience
A chauffeur will transport clients to the Human Propulsion Laboratory. Our UK location is The Hush House, a repurposed jet testing facility at a former RAF military base.
Clients are introduced via a tour of the Human Propulsion Laboratory, followed by refreshments and a Jet Suit tailoring session.
Following preparation a fully qualified Gravity Industries Pilot will take the client through:
-The Jet Suit power-up sequence
-Initial low-power flight experimentation
-Higher power testing (dependent on client’s flight capabilities)Lunch will be provided with Richard Browning, Founder and Chief Test Pilot of Gravity Industries and there will be a live untethered flight demonstration by a qualified member of the Gravity Display Team. The rest of the day includes more flight training and Jet Suit experience.
Gravity Industries will capture the entire Experience for the client and can facilitate media and film crew attendance.
