Take a Ride! WOW!
The back seat of an F-18
Ride in a F/A 18 Hornet......
Make sure and click on all 5 excerpts.
Make sure your sound is on.
Be sure to watch all of the 'scenes,' especially 'Scene 2'.
You have to click on each photo at the left to watch the scene.
(The first one should open on its own.)

YOWSA, I remember the feeling when I was teaching aerobatics, not quite the speed and G forces of the F18 though, but fun nonetheless. In my earlier days in the Air Force, seems like another lifetime ago, I was a research subject in the human centrifuge where we pulled as many a 9G sitting up and 15 laying down. Blackouts come quickly at those G forces.....
Great video though......

Thanks Jack that was great.
I live right on the bordor of Berry Goldwater Air force range and get to see the boys play all the time. I would love to take a ride but I know that I am a big wus and make a mess in their plane.

Help me out here, what do I need to load on my computer to see this? When I click on the link all I get is a white page that is void of anything.

You need a browser like Internet Explorer (you probably already have this) AND you need the Adobe Flash player. If you have a virus checker it might have prevented you from downloading the Flash player automatically.
To manually get the Flash player go to www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer and download the free current version 10.
Then try the link again.
I hope this helps,
