Al,
You reminded me about that guy on the Animal Planet channel... USAF gave him a ride in the rear seat of the viper. A close camera showed he grayed out during a high-G turn. Before the flight, he played with that strange moving "sidewinder" snake!!! He was so lucky!
Here in Thailand, RTAF just gave a ride for the Priminister, about 40 minutes in a rear seat F-16B... followed (but secretly) by 2 more flights for an actress and a news reporter girl!! ...I don't think I'm going to be a priminister or an actor, don't think to play with a cobra either!. Maybe flying Falcon 4.0 is my only chance to fulfill a dream ... (sobbing silently).

Till these days, whenever I talk to strangers online... Theres a big chance
they misunderstand me and think I am talking about Austria :) When I finally
correct them... they ask, do you know that Croc Hunter?
Key to success for an Aussie, Play with crocodiles and other exoticly
poisonous reptiles :) Then the USAF will even take you up for a spin in the
Viper :)
The other option is to look like Kylie Monogue. Not my cup of tea.
Cheers,

P.S. If I ever set foot on the european continent again. I will definetly
try my best to get around to as many simpitter and falconeers. Hopefully,
before the next world cup in Germany.
