We support Cancer Research UK
Thursday, March 31st, 2011
Every year we offer a flight to a charity so they can raise money for their cause. This year, we have decided to support Cancer Research. They are organizing a golfing day out in June along with COMET, bringing suppliers to this event. At night, an auction will be organised with various prizes to bet on. And one of them will be our jet fighter ride. We hope to raise a lot of money through our gift. Cancer survival rates have doubled in the last 40 years, thanks to the tremendous work done by orgRead More....
Jet fighter video along the cliffs
Friday, March 18th, 2011
We love to fly our jet fighter in Northern France as we can get really close to the cliffs. There are also many aerobatics axis where we can do many maneuvers. Check out this short video.

Aerobatics in a jet fighter
Thursday, March 3rd, 2011
Flying a jet fighter is a great experience, as long you as you get to experience some aerobatics to truly feel the plane. And the simplest maneuver you can experience is the barrel roll. The great thing about this figure is that anyone, with any plane, can achieve it. It is so easy and so un-dangerous that even commercial airliners can do it. As a matter of fact, the test pilot of the Boeing 727 did a barrel roll in front of the crowd dRead More....
