JohnMitchell 16 #4 May 18, 2010 I've flown a lot, and have ridden in aerobatic aircraft, and never got sick at all. But, that looks like a triple barf bag special. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
futuredivot 0 #5 May 18, 2010 I've been lucky enough to cadge rides from most of the top performers-I was green when Rob landed. Of, course, I'll never let him know that.You are only as strong as the prey you devour Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I got a ride in an aerobatic plane 13 years ago that my brother's best friend owns. He did all kinds of shit with it. cork screws, loops, barrel rolls, you name it. I was having a blast. He let me have the yoke for a while so I could do some stuff, and back on the ground he asked me if I'd ever flown before, and I said nope, that was the first time. He looked flabbergasted. I'd love to do it again... I have an iron stomach.

Other than when we did a Demo with Patty Wagstaff, she was a bit upitty towards us skydivers, but one hell of a talented pilot! Ws pretty kewl to be getting buzzeed by a plane while coming in for a landing...(she kept cirvcling us, it was for an opening shot to "Dare Devils Of The Sky" TV show for NOVA!)
