Incredible Air Combat USA Dogfighting *Loops*

In one of the coolest experiences of my life, I got to dogfight in a real plane. This clip is the 5th of 6 showdowns we had, and is by far the most exciting: loops, spins, and all kinds of acrobatics as I chase down my elusive target. Listen to my fighter-pilot host yell out the G forces while I man the stick. For your own aerial adventure, hit up AirCombatUSA.com

You missed buddy. No lock there, tracking maybe, but no joy....

@TamakoAkai Don't harsh my buzz, man! ;) Naw, I hear ya. They gave me a little auto-targeting pass on that one. Perhaps they thought the chase warranted an assist.

@ahmednabil Yes, the real pilot handles the throttle the whole time, and gives the "fantasy" pilot the stick when it's safe. You can hear him say at the beginning he's giving us "plenty of airspeed." When he's saying to "relax the pull," it's because we're at an angle where the engine stalls if you try to do anything. It's crazy, especially coming out of a loop. My pilot was great; he was having a really good time -- almost as much fun as I had.

@2TonTongue

i could tell the pilot really trusted you with the stick , did he handle the throttle or did you?

[2TonTongue]

@ahmednabil I did an okay job on the stick, but no way would they let me land. I probably wouldn't have survived to post the vid. However, they did let me get closer than usual on some maneuvers after dogfighting (in another YouTube vid of mine).

The plane is an Extra 300L.

Thanks for watching!

@2TonTongue

lol. that must be incredible.

so did get to land it ?

and ,oh what plane was that?

[dinmagic]

Really want to try one. Sure people get scare and all but I heard that once you're in one you never want to get out.

Amen to that, looks like a ton of fun. Lucky gent.
