  I flew in a L-39 and was not too impressed. Too smooth, lots of g's, didn't
feel like you were even moving.
  Setting up for a landing made you feel like you were just hanging in the 
air,
kinda mushy.
  
  I'd go for a acro ride in a Lancair before I'd do another jet ride. I do 
want
to take a MIG 15 up just to
  see what there is to one though. Much cheaper here in the U.S. The L-39 ride
was $600 for 1.5 hours
  about 2 years ago.
