Estes took us full vertical from takeoff up to over 30,000 feet as I recall. He then let it roll over backwards and we went into an all out dive!!!! Absolutely TENSE!!!

No car can give you that feeling. And when the pilot pulls up it gets crazy... I'm talking off the freaking charts !! The thing most people don't know is they do not clime straight up (90 degrees). They take you up at 80 to 85 degrees because its faster. Gs kicking that got damn ass. LOL When you land ... yeah you want to go to sleep. Pilots ain't punks.

You could feel the pressure waves from the afterburners, felt like someone was hitting you in the chest. From the time of rotation to leaving a vapor trail 12 seconds.
