    Wow! Great flight! It's hard to imagine a better "thank you" to the crew!
    if I was in this plane.. and pilot says..
    "What else do you want to do?"
    Me: "never get off that plane"
    Greetings from a fan from Poland.

    I got an incentive ride in a T38. The pilot was a woman, and I had a bit of a crush on her. It’s been nearly 20 years and It’s still the most amazing experience I’ve ever had with a woman!

    Wow, the chief didn't pass out at a min radius turn. Respect! I guess next time he gets into a rollercoaster he'll probably come out thinking it was lame. Great thing that ground crews get to experience what the pilots do with 'their' jet too. Great stuff.

    Very lucky to get a ride on a fighter... I bet that was a blast!!! My son crewed 16's for 6 years and wasn't lucky enough to get one. I myself crewed C-130's for 24 years and flew to 35 countries and loved it... Congrats on your flight and thank you for your service...

    I had a couple of F16’s practice intercepts when I was traversing a MOA near MGM about 7 years ago. We were talking, but it was still intimidating to see them pitched high and flying on either side of me. They don’t look that big on the ground, but in the air.... I never knew you guys could get as slow as 95kts, either. They were still passing me at 110kts. I’ve never been in a fighter. Thanks for sharing these views. I’ve always wondered what their view was. This is absolutely amazing.

    I like how you tell him he pulled 9.7 after you landed. And yeah, I don't think too many people could pull that. I think I'd be out at around 5, maybe 6.
