EAA has reportedly confirmed that it's talking with "Jetman" Yves Rossy to perform at AirVenture 2013. AOPA Online reported that the talks, which will include Rossy's sponsor Breitling, are under way but the performance is far from a sure thing. "Our people have talked with him and his group. Nothing is confirmed," EAA spokesman Dick Knapinski wrote in a comment section of the AOPA blog. Among the considerations is FAA approval, which is likely to be a little more complicated than the nod the agency gave to Rossy's flight over the Grand Canyon last May.
