Hello guys :D

Yesterday I was out flying in a Fouga Magister :pilot
It was my second time ever flying in a plane :dance
It was really really awesome :D

The plane!

wow moment :D
In the middel of a roll over the beautifull danish country side :woohoo:

But when the Fouga made a loop I passed out :( for like 10 seconds :( When I woke up on top of the loop I was a tad sick... did not throw up though :D But I can tell ya my brain was not happy with me for the rest of the day. It's like having a really bad hang over :drinks

It was only like 3g but that was my limit that day :(

Now I really want to build agian :D :geek


Happy easter!!!


All the very best
Mikkel
 
What a treat!! :pilot

My Dad had private pilot's license. He flew any chance he had and I'd go with him any chance I had, but we never got to ride along in anything like that. I bet it was fun.

Thanks for sharing Mikkel.

What was the occasion?
 
It was really awesome :D

No special ocassion, other than that I'm almost done with High school, so it was my gift for myself I guess :blush:
I really wanted to try to fly in a jet so I heard about this guy in the radio and phoned him that was how I got a tour :D
BUT DAMN IT I passed out in a loop :facepalm :smack
 
Too cool. Just takes some practice. When you start to pull Gs tighten your stomach muscles and tense everything up. Short breaths and hold a pressure. It squeezes the blood vessels slowing the flow of blood to the feet away from your head.

James, I think I messed up my breathing... damn I'm still mad at myself for passing out!!! :pinch:



All the very best

Hi Mikkel. Seems like you had a nice flight .

Curious about your ride . Do you know if this aircraft is all original or has it been re-engined ?

Met a fella in Texas some years back that had one with newer engines. Really got along with the program much better.

Cheers, Christian B)
 
It was cool :D

Christian, It is completely stock :)Only new things are radios and a small gopro hero 3 camera :) The day before my flight two belgian mecs finished during mainteance on the plane.

The rear part of the plane is from El Salvador the front is from belgium/France. A few years back the pilot Niels Egelund had a crash, because the fuel tank thingey was not secured, so jetfuel poured over the fuselage into the enigenes and BOOOOOOOM super fast landing :D Nobody got hurt!!!
The sad thing is that there is only 2 private military jet warbirds in Denmark. The Magister and a L-29. The politicans believe that it is to dangerous to let civies have such things :smack :vmad
Which means that it's almost illegal to get spares (being military stuff...) There is actually 2 J-35 Drakens that did not make it before the new laws, so they can't be allowed fly :(
 
Definitely a drag :( Such a weapon of mass destruction :smack

I know I was very surprised to see that one flying in Texas . The owner was even more surprised that I knew what it was.

The Belgian Red devils almost lst one of these while I was at Hahn AB.

Cheers, Christian B)
