That'd be SCHWEET but my SSO would shit a kitten if I told him I was going to Moscow on vacation
to take a ride in a MiG or Sukoi.

The powers that be wouldn't be too amused, me thinks!

The men in black would be all over me if I went to Russia and dropped thousands of dollars.  That much is certain.

Thanks Wedge -- I needed that!

I wonder if they do hang glider rides.  Or if I could afford even that.

Towards the middle of this page (see link below), a woman won a trip to do that in a MIG 25....$18,000.00 trip

As a side note, the story about the "Kegsket" ...that is my father standing by his new beer cooler at EAA this year.
