No safety net, no stewardess to hold you hand if you suddenly succumb to fear of flying. When the afterburners kick in, your stomach is likely to have a thing or two to say. All part of a routine day's work for a MIG pilot.

MIG-25
Flight-Adventures
The bravest pilots are always those sitting at home, behind a console, armed with a joystick and keyboard. Double loopings, triple rolls and a reckless landing on a minuscule aircraft carrier no problem!
But what happens to this bravado when, backed up by the right contacts, said valiant pilot suddenly finds himself clutching a ticket for a real flight on a real MIG-25? We witness the metamorphosis of the bravest TopGun-style pilot into a lame duck. You disagree? Well, here's your chance to prove us wrong!
Come on, all you tough guys who yawn with ennui at the thought of a roller-coaster ride.
Exclusive Life will not put up with tame excuses: your co-pilot is ready, your flightsuit waiting and the MIG's engines have been revved up to flight temperature. That cloud roll has just come within grasping distance. Exclusive Life is happy to send you off flying at Mach 2.5 on a real jet adventure.
All it takes is a click...

Forget the catwalk - this is the look real men aspire to. A photo guaranteed to make an impression - and the potential to garnish your first date with suitable anecdotes:

You`ll be binning those flight simulator manuals once you get to this stage. Nudge the ejector seat button thoughtlessly and you`re in for in for an unexpected journey. Only joking: the pilot knows what he's doing. Seriously.

The prep work for a ride on the cannonball the Russians call a MIG-25. This is approximately what the flight path looks like - you won't really be going anywhere, but you'll get a lot closer to the stars: maximum flight altitude is nearly 25,000 metres.
