A completely dynamic human powered flying suit comprising of a pair of bat wings and an interconnecting flexible main sheet with the body of the pilot-operator lying on top of and in the center of the non-rigid section of the apparatus when in flight. Each wing has a front section or a wing paddle with supporting spar network and a similar but smaller rear section with the pilot-operator's arms and legs respectively operating the front and rear sections in a swimming motion in order to make lift and thrust. A rear air dam extends along the trailing underside edge of the central part of the apparatus to slow passing air. Large straps extend from wing tip to wing tip at radial intervals down the underside of the aircraft to prevent hyper-extension of the large wing paddle outer ends from bypassing behind the pilot-operator to ensure capturing lift and for the making of thrust. A body harness is provided with quick disconnect clips to hold the pilot-operator onto the suit. A pilot-operator manipulates the rigid and non-rigid sections in concert to radically change the shape of the body wing chord or angle of attack on the wind by bending at the waist and legs to maneuver from high lift shapes to lower lift shapes for takeoff, flight, stunts and landing. A pilot-operator can sweep the wings down and forward or down and backward in a delta shape to bypass wind to safely walk on the ground when wearing the suit into or away from the wind.
