Fly High While the Ruble is Low

Exchange rates in Russia are currently the best they've ever been.  That makes this an incredible time to fly a MiG over Russia with Incredible Adventures.  The same five-star hotel room that used to cost $400 or more can now be found for as little as $130.

The MiG-29 has long been known for its aerobatic ability, but the amazing front line fighter is also capable of flying to extreme altitudes.  MiG flyers can expect to climb up to 20 km in cold-weather months and 17 to 18km high in summer.

Today's Trivia:  Incredible Adventures is the only non-Russian company directly authorized to sell MiG fighter jet rides at the Nizhny Novgorod Aircraft Building Plant Sokol, the factory where MiG fighter jets and other incredible warplanes have been manufactured for over 80 years.  The Florida-based American company has arranged thousands of flights in its 22-year history.

Sixty Days to Prepare

Incredible Adventures, then known as MIGS etc., delivered its very first civilian MiG-29 flight in 1993.  Back then, obtaining the necessary security clearance to fly a MiG took as little as five days. 

Today, obtaining the necessary security clearance requires a minimum of 60 days.  Obtaining clearance is still relatively easy...it just takes a lot longer to complete the process.

As a result, wannabe MiG flyers must constantly be reminded to plan in advance.  If you've decided to make 2014 the year you break the sound barrier in a MiG over Russia, now is the time to contact Incredible Adventures.  For more information, email or call 800-644-7382.

Fighter Jet Flights Highly Restricted in the US

There are only a few places in the US where someone can legally arrange a flight in a real fighter jet.  Federal Aviation regulations greatly restrict who can offer the flights, where, and under what circumstances. T-33 flights are permitted at the Planes of Fame Museum in California through Incredible Adventures because the aircraft is deemed to be of historical significance and flight proceeds help support the museum and keep historic planes flying.  The ultimate fighter jet adventure takes place in Russia, where Incredible Adventures has been offering MiG-29 flights for the last 20 years.  If a trip to Russia to break the sound barrier in a MiG isn't possible, then contact Incredible Adventures for a complete list of US flight options.

L-39 Flights in Russia

Incredible Adventures offered its first L-39 flights back in 1993, when the company was known to the world as MIGS etc.  At the time, anyone wishing to break the sound barrier in a MiG over Russia was required to first "prove themselves" in the cockpit of an L-39 Albatros.  The ride in the L-39 gave adventurers a preview of high g-forces and aerobatics and helped them to "get used to" the experience of wearing a helmet and oxygen mask.

A flight in the L-39 is no longer a prerequisite for flying a MiG-29, but the company still strongly encourages its clients to arrange a flight in the popular jet trainer. Today's Russian L-39 rides take off from the town of Vyazma, located roughly three hours by car from Moscow.  Adventurers fly with a member of Team Rus, Russia's popular aerobatic team.

For more information about L-39 flights in Russia or elsewhere, call Incredible Adventures at 1-941-346-2603 or visit the company's primary website:  www.incredible-adventures.com.

A Jet Doesn't Have a Propeller

"Fly a real fighter jet in simulated combat! Locations nationwide" says the internet ad.  Sounds great, until you look at the aircraft in the photos and realize they aren't jets at all.  

Please be careful when searching the internet for a flying adventure.  Not all you see if true.

Better yet, put your trust in Incredible Adventures. The company has been delivering flying adventures around the world since 1993.
