Ok, we're airborne. There is nothing, and I mean absolutely nothing, that can compare to this ride.

During the flight, we did every maneuver in the book and then some, pulling over 6g's at times.

Captain Nelson even let me take the stick a few times. The stick on an F16 is located on the console to the right of the seat and doesn't really move as much as it senses pressure. Just like the joystick on a video game.

Only this is the real deal. The camera by the way, was mounted on the instrument panel in front of me and the video was taped on the gun camera video recorder.

  • Kenny Loggins song is from a soundtrack to a movie about Naval aviation.

  • @FlightLevelHeaded I know, and I've got three carrier landings and takeoffs under my belt including the USS Ranger where Top Gun name originated. Just the music I wanted to use. It was a rockin' flight and I picked rockin' music.

  • How do you get a ride in one of those?

  • @mymacon Friends in high places.

  • Your video would be 100% better if we could hear. ...

  • @oke139 Well you better come to America then lol

  • @soprano746 Then make it happen and just dont talk about it :)

  • @mymacon It has to be to get the thunderbirds seen. They will do it for big name people, or a news guy, and also for people in charge of things like curing cancer and stuff like that. Thats why I am just going to become a pilot lol
