Kelsey went first taking the flight right to the limit doing every aerobatic maneuver discussed in the briefing and then some! Loops, rolls, hammerheads, inverted flight, tailslides, lomcevaks, tumbles, knife edge spins, flat spins, inverted spins and even the Outside Loop … she did it all! Great job Kelsey … I’m sure Brian will admit you were a tough act to follow today.

Here’s what Kelsey had to say …

Video Transcript

“My name is Kelsey Snyder. I’m from Arizona. I did the aerobatic flight today (Fighter Combat Flight of Your Life Super Ride). It was a gift to myself for my birthday.
It was an incredible experience … the most amazing thing I’ve ever done. It’s safe. The instructor is incredible … he talked me through everything. He was vocal with me, made me feel safe, made me feel like I knew what I was doing.

“It was definitely the thrill of my life. Everybody here was so helpful and made me feel right at home. They didn’t make me feel weird or awkward coming here and definitely answered everything I needed answered and they helped me get through this.
It’s a great experience!”

Dream Come True. http://www.fightercombat.com/adrenaline-pumping-adventure-flying-dream-come-true/ http://www.fightercombat.com/adrenaline-pumping-adventure-flying-dream-come-true/#comments Fri, 22 Apr 2011 18:43:20 +0000 fhamilton http://www.fightercombat.com/?p=2500 No one can describe what a guy goes through when you do this.  It is so much fun and the adrenaline is pumping, before you know it, it is over—that’s why I went twice!!!

Otter is an excellent pilot and instructor.  He made me feel very comfortable in the maneuvers that we did,  I wanted to do them all and we did them all including an 8-G turn (awesome!!!!!)I want to thank all the staff for the great time and I will be back soon, I hope.  I have always dreamed and swore that I would fly in a fighter jet before I die.  To me this is better than that because this plane has no limits.  We cannot do what we did in this plane that you can in a fighter, with the conversations I had with Otter, F-18 Pilot (lucky dog!!).  Yes I am jealous.  He made me realize that for me this is my dream come true.  Sorry about blabbing on and on.  I could go on for hours-if you have a chance to do this in your lifetime my advice, DO IT!!! money well spent and a lifetime experience that you will never forget!

I hold a private pilot certificate but have never done any flying like this before!  I was allowed to observe then fly every single maneuver from the very start.  I still cannot believe the things I did in that airplane!  This is definitely a great way to break up the monotony of flying straight and level!  Not only was it the most fun I have ever had, I feel that I am a more confident and safe pilot after this experience.  I will be recommending this place to everyone and will return as soon as I can!  I am tempted to do the FLIGHT OF YOUR LIFE again but the other packages look great as well.

Finally, I would like to thank my instructor pilot, Paul “BJ” Ransbury for not only the flight but also his professional contribution to the aviation world.  His eBook on wake turbulence is a must read for all pilots.  It’s easy to get the sense that he truly cares about promoting safety among those in aviation.  I can’t say enough great things about this organization.

Thanks again!

I’ve come to the conclusion that no such word in the English language exists that would convey the sheer awesomeness of the entire experience. From the moment I walked in the door to the time I climbed out of the cockpit, I was treated like I was the most important individual to ever grace an airstrip, while being put at ease at what was clearly going to be the most intense and memorable experience of my life. “Otter” was not only the best pilot that has ever lived, but his teaching skills are second to none- both traits that contributed to an experience I can’t stop thinking about or conveying to others. Fighter Combat International has a business plan that others should follow- hire the best talent, tell the customers exactly what to expect and then over deliver on the results. I LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!! Otter’s the man and I look forward to seeing him and the staff at Fighter Combat International again soon!

The sensations I felt during the aerobatic & combat flights have never been matched by anything else I’ve ever done.  Truly the flight of my life in every way you can imagine.  Thank you FCI.
