...speeds of up to 250 m.p.h. There's even a chance to engage in mock dogfights, complete with the sound of simulated gunfire and the release of plumes of smoke when you score a "hit" on an enemy aircraft. After the fray, pilots will demonstrate some of the slicker moves required in air combat, including tail slides, inverted spins and loop-the-loops, subjecting you to more eye-popping G-forces than you ever thought possible.
