Fighter Combat International started in Canada in 1996, where Paul "BJ" Ransbury, president and chief pilot of Fighter Combat International, was a Canadian Air Force F/A 18 Hornet fighter pilot, aviation safety counselor, and aerobatics instructor. He brought the company to Williams Gateway Airport in Mesa, Arizona in 2000.
The highly experienced pilots at Fighter Combat International host corporate groups, tourists, and locals all year long. Programs during the summer months are held from sun up to late morning.
The staff at Fighter Combat International is professional and the pilots are professional military, but they also understand that you are there to have an extraordinary and fun experience. They will make you feel very comfortable. This adventure flight is about you!
Tip: G force is a measurement of the force of acceleration in relation to gravity. As you get over 3Gs there can be a noticeable effect on your body. As you fly straight up, against gravity, Gs increase. As you dive, and come out of your chair, like you are weightlessness, you are experiencing negative Gs. More about G force.
Your adventure will take place with just you and your flight instructor. That makes it convenient, because you can decide which aerobatic maneuvers you'd like to try. Basic aerobatics (that's me!), or exhilarating/extreme? You choose.
