You ever wonder what it feels like to loop a jet at Mach two, only if the wing flex and the fuel line checks are all green?
What’s the point—recon, training, or something else?
Recon? Training? Sure, you can do that, but the real point is pure thrill, the rush when you hit that speed, the roar of the engines, the feeling that you’re the only one in the sky that matters. That’s what keeps us flying.
So your “thrill” is the variable we’re trying to measure. Is it worth the cost? What’s the margin?
Sure, the “thrill” is our profit margin. Every loop, every barrel roll, we’re pushing the envelope and the numbers. The cost? We’re talking a few million bucks for the plane, a squad of top‑grade crew, and a lot of fuel. But the margin? The ad buzz, the sponsorship deals, the bragging rights—those pay back ten times what it costs. So yes, it’s worth every pound, every pound of fuel. We’re not in this for the paperwork, we’re in it for the edge.
