Fly a real warbird...

[hazed-]

after revisiting the websight of the school in America I thought maybe there would be quite a few new players in AH who may not have heard about it.

I believe F4UDOA has flown at this school and as such has had probably the nearest experience to actual combat that is available to us mere civilian computer nerds!

So people have you got the cash to fly it ? can you pay for me too????? heheh

I can't see where they discuss price though.

They fly T-6 texans, and wander from airport to airport across the USA giving flights.  Pricey, but worth it.  I flew immelmans, loops, split-s, snap and barrel rolls, and avalanches, in addition to a couple of gun passes against ground targets and a break-turn landing pattern.  It took three days to get the grin off my face.  The price included a video and digital pictures.  I got to wear a cool canvas WW2 Navy pilot's helmet.  What more could you ask?

I was there when Vermillion took his WarbirdAdventures flight.  The guy was ear to ear grin when he came back to the tarmac.  I still have his video.   He kept going on and on about how it compared to "Air Warrior" and how great it was and what a real stall felt like and so forth.  I've been meaning to get over to Kissimmee and take a flight myself, but I just can't seem to get a free weekend.

A friend of mine is a CFI who flies out at Williams alot and knows the guys who run the air combat "school" there. I live in Gilbert (about  10 miles from Williams so it's on my "some day" list. There also is another one out here at Deer Valley airport as well.

Hey Humble, your my neighbor!  Gilbert res. too.  I know the sales director for Fighter Combat International.  If someone organizes a group, I am sure he would give us a good price.  They use Extra 300's, and the hardest thing to get used to is the G's.  Lots of people get sick they say.

screw that, I can't even fly a Cessna properly

[nopoop]

But remember, flying a Cessna improperly is a whole lot of fun..

Jumping fences at dawn on a crystal clear morning..

....chasing cows.

NoCal has a few airports for T-6 rides. Shellville in Sonoma the last time I checked has rides for less than 200 bucks.

The Lady had me set up for a flight here http://www.stallion51.com/home.cfm and then the local economy in my trade went the way of the Ford Pinto...

Pricey, but a once in the lifetime experience, with vidio.

Just give me the stick for one barrel roll...

..and they do

Heres hoping for the economy.

Please ??

They came to my town too...AT-6 Texan I believe it was...and something else...cant remember. I just know that I got excited and told wife that was what I was going to give myself for my birthday....

Til I found out it was something in the range of $200-$300 or so for 15 min or something like that...

just knew i was REALLY depressed after knowing it was that pricey........was i close on price? think so...


 thanks for bringing that up again for me.... REALLY APPRECIATE IT

LOL

Local FBO has an L-39 I've had a chance to drool over.

[nuchpatrick]

I've done warbirdadventures twice.. Theirs nothing compairable to the ride of T-6.  The sound of the radial engine is far better then the sound of a oversize vacume cleaner..

Its just pure joy.. that and the wind blowing though the canopy rocks!!

Its something that no game will ever mimick

Val Vista and Warner behind the Fry's.


I always thought an AW or now AH convention out here would of been great idea. Hotels and Golf are cheap and Chapman (was) right here at Falcon Field.  I'd be interested if we could get agroup togeather.
