As company specializing in arranging flights in fighter jets to non-pilots, we find ourselves often confronted with interested clients worrying about the risks involved in flying jet. Everybody knows that jet pilots who regularly fly a fighter jet are athletes who spend a significant time of their work in gyms, strengthening both their body and their mind. Why, people ask, can john doe also fly in a fighter jet and even control the aircraft himself without such training and background?

The answer has a simple and a more complex part. Let's explore the simple part first. Basically, clients who pay to fly a fighter jet are, of course, not alone in the air. A seasoned test pilot or instructor will fly the fighter jet, and it's him who is flying the jet in crucial parts of the flight such as taking off or landing the jet fighter. Also, should there be an emergency such as a bird-strike or a technical failure while clients fly a jet fighter, it's the pilot's duty to land the aircraft safely. Still, the normal part of a sortie - that is, the jet flying in blue sky under good weather conditions - represents an ideal scenario to fly in a fighter jet. During such parts, there is not much skill needed to keep the aircraft going, hands down.
