PickupAt your hotel

You're pulling 6 Gs in a stunt plane over Nevada desert, and your hands are on the stick.

You're picked up from your hotel and flown to a private hangar where you suit up and choose your flight type: ride-along with a fighter pilot, hands-on aerobatics with an instructor, or competitive dogfight against a friend. The flight itself is 10 to 20 minutes of high-G maneuvers over the Mojave Desert and Las Vegas, depending on your package. Afterward, you decompress in the lounge before heading back to your hotel.

The Experience

The pilot banks hard left and the horizon tilts past vertical. Your stomach doesn't follow. That's the moment you realize the Extra 330LC isn't a sightseeing flight—it's a real aerobatic aircraft, the kind that does things most planes can't, and you're strapped into the back seat while it does them. The whole experience runs about an hour from hotel pickup to landing, though the flight itself is the part you'll replay in your head for weeks.

You get three ways to do this. The Recon flight puts you with a real fighter pilot for 10 minutes of maneuvers over the Mojave Desert and Las Vegas skyline—you watch, you feel it, you don't touch anything. The Afterburner lets you take the controls and actually fly loops, rolls, and tail slides with an instructor sitting behind you, talking you through it. Then there's Sky Combat, which is exactly what it sounds like: you and a friend in separate planes, flying against each other with laser targeting and scoring systems, supervised by expert instructors. No flight experience is required for any of it. The operation was founded by a U.S. Air Force veteran, and the instructors know how to keep you safe while making sure you feel every second of it.

Before you fly, you're in the hangar lounge with a noise-cancelling headset, sunglasses, and access to snacks and drinks. Bring friends or family—they can hang there while you're up. You'll need to bring a photo ID (FAA regulation), wear comfortable clothes and shoes, and know your weight has to land between 80 and 265 pounds; height maxes out at 6'6". The whole operation handles the logistics—hotel pickup, drop-off, all local taxes and fees included. You just show up ready to go.
