This was my adventure for 2007, flying the L-39 military jet on October 8 in Burbank, California. Dave Riggs was the pilot and allowed me to fly to the Edwards AFB canyons and do some rolls. He flew through the canyons at 90 degree angles (think Star Wars) and flew at 0.8 Mach (750 km/h) 6 FEET off the deck! It was a 45 minute thrill of a lifetime.

Thank you, sir. I have my Fighter Pilots USA aerial combat vid to load to YouTube yet and my Caribbean reef shark feeding scuba dive to load to YouTube. I have an adventure every year (I'm now 60) and recently ran the Obstacle Course at Marine Corps Officer Candidate School where I did it in 1970. Made it over every obstacle, the red wall and up the rope. Sore for 3 days afterwards but the spirit was shining! Thank you for helping to protect democracy in England.
Nice ride! I'm a pilot myself at 14 with 80 hours and am hoping to go into Air Force for tanker division. My brother is in Army Military Intelligence and really likes it so he's giving me advice. Any advice for a young a pilot?
that was amazing lol im only 13 but right now im into the whole army type things... i was at eaa this year (i livejust up the lake from where its held) and i brought a friend along instead of the f-22 raptor he chose the border patrol puppies :P but then again that looks amazing.. i had the same oppurtunity at a think for boy scouts to fly a plane but i let my dad=]
I'm now 60 years old but have been having an annual adventure since I first joined the U.S. Marine Corps as a 2nd Lieutenant in 1970. You've got your whole life ahead of you. Have a blast!
