Hiller Flying Platform

The Hiller 1031 Flying Platform was a disc for one person standing and flying. Hiller Aviation in Palo Alto, California, developed the flying platform in association with the US military in the 1950s. The goal was to use the platform to spot artillery or move troops over tough terrain.
To steer, the pilot shifts his weight. Four shock absorbers helped out with the landings.
Only seven flying platforms were ever made, and the military scrapped the project around 1956.
