Fighter jet experience for civilians

Chogy you bully :lol:
I feel sorry for the poor guy...
I never pulled G forces ..
But we the (ex) Navy people have a different experience on Motion nausea...When our vessels roll 35 degrees on each side for days on end.
We drink less water,and avoid eating anything slimy..such as a banana.
A glass of water+A banana = Barfing your guts out in stormy weather.

Ive had some rough sea exp myself.. but its not the pitch and roll that gets you..
its that damn corkscrew motion,.. Barfed out a lobster meal a 100 nm off Jiwani..
somehow though.. I rarely get motion sickness from the sea.
But put me in a car that I am not driving and a mountain road.. and Ill faint from throwing up.

One option that was available for supersonic flight about 10 years ago was the Concorde

100 n miles off jiwani?
arabian sea is very rough during moonsoon months...
i was mostly stationed in the north sea...off the coast of scotland and sometimes norway...and you may be aware how bad it is at higher latitudes.
the roaring fourties and above
my nemesis was pounding...when the vessels bow is lifted and slammed on water.....it sends shock waves through the hill and we feel it as if being lightly electrocuted twice a minute...as the shock wave travels through the body.
depending on weather and vessels course ..it could continue non stop.for tens of hours or days.

11000 euro its too much

If you refer to the jet rides, that's barely more than the fuel.

A fighter can carry 20,000 lb or more, or 3000 gallons of jet fuel. At $3 or $4 U.S. per gallon, the math adds up.
