I haven't got a jetpack in the game yet.  Of course I just started over
again, so it'll probably be awhile.  

I understand you can get them as a modification of power armor at some
point.  

You wouldn't even need a parachute, as the power armor stops all fall damage
anyway (yeah, realistic hmm?).  I've jumped off the top of a 3 story
building multiple times now.  I think one of the tool tips says you do
damage in a shock-wave around you doing that.  It certainly makes a loud
boom anyway.  

It's too bad the power for the armor is so rare & limited.  I'm sure jet-
packing consumes power at an accelerated rate.

Well, Goat Simulator has a jet pack & paragliding, but I doubt that's what your after.  The jet-pack has no controls - it's more like being strapped onto a bottle rocket.  

You can fly around in a copter-cycle, vtol, or superjump in latest Saints Row pretty early & easy.

I wish more games had flight, especially MMOs.  That's one of the things I really miss from City of Heroes.
