Hi Guys,
Just wanted to share my experience flying in the F/A -18 Super Hornet at the Air show, the 45 minute flight was an experience of a lifetime. I will never forget it!! Being an aviation journalist has it advantages ...  Grin

Great to see you join the forum Karma Sir! I have heard so much about you from Sanjeev!
I bet your blog would set most of here in the forum charred with Envy! I saw the both the days show from ground, wonder what it would have been to sit in those machine and fly! Life time experience for most civilians, unless you are a billionaire in US to afford one of these !

Looking forward for more of your posts!

yes Smiley and if you watched our coverage on CNN IBN i completed my interview with the pilot and also did a piece to camera. It helps when you fly the jet and fool around. It takes your mind off the nausea caused by the G pull. But i had a bag ready just in case  Grin
