What do you think it’s like to ride for an hour in the backseat of an F/A-18 Hornet with one of the most skilled pilots in the world? It’s surreal and exhausting. If you’re not in excellent physical condition, the ride sucks your energy like the afterburners slurp fuel. But all

in all, I stayed awake long enough to permanently record how amazing it was. Thanks JB, you really took me for a heck of a ride! Please don’t email me asking how to get a ride. I explain below that you’ll never get one.
