Hi Guy's

I posted this on another forum where the feedback has been fun!

My wife kindly bought me a topgun experience flight with Ultimate High.

Extra 300 aeroplanes and plenty of sticktime made for a wonderful time.....

Until I realised my tummy could not quite keep up.

The lack of a sickbag made life interesting for me.

Enjoy my pain....but overall I loved it Loved it Loved it.

To keep it slightly on topic I WAS wearing a Navitimer.....

I can't see the humor in that at all.
I Spent the worst four hours of my life on a small fishing boat pitching around in choppy seas in the Gulf of Mexico. At least I had the entire Atlantic ocean to throw up in though. Man, I know how miserable you must have been. You want to fly and enjoy what you are doing but at the same time you're thinking get me back on the ground ASAP!!!!

Sorry Davey.

When I see that look on someone's face (usually in a pub) I run. Quickly. I have to hand it to you - amazing control!

Thanks for sharing Davey - and thanks for the laugh on a Monday morning. Tears down my face laughing.

I edited this in a crude way, you are spared at least 20 more close calls.....my jaws hurt my every instinct wanted to let it all go....

But I could never let that happen....ever.

But, it is funny.......Well I, my lovely wife, and the guys who work for me thought so, that's why I decided to post it.....

I'm pleased it's a bit of fun.

Davey

That was an impressive feat of self control Davey. Well done for keeping it in!

Looks like a fabulous experience! Do you know how many G's you were pulling on those turns?

Davey, that's really impressive control.

I can totally understand you, have been in the same situation.
