Who is Luke. These sort of rides are usually very expensive.
How much would it cost for a ride up in one of those...?

Luke AFB... the only F-16 training school in the country.

And I get a flight because I brief tactics to pilots... and they want me to know how manuevers feel.

That was a sweet ride... was riding on O2 the entire time, but hey so much better than a roller coaster... I went through red out and black out (negative and positive G's) pulled a full up 9G 360... the kind of thing that you see in air shows... yeah he took me for a ride all right.
