Holy crap that looks like fun. When it did the twist for the first time I thought it was going to break. I would give it a shot though.

The way those arms twist and turn like that, this ride looks like an accident waiting to happen. :lol:

Hopefully not made by the same companies that turn out those well made accident free soviet airliners. :P :lol:

This is one of the freakiest things I have ever seen. Looks like something out of a nightmare.

I rode some rides when I was in Russo. Most were American rides that no longer pass the safety inspections. One ride a lady got me one was missing at least half the bolts One ride was two rides to many for me..

But the elevators I rode on were pretty good rides in themselves , pedal to the metal starts, up/down super fast and then a dead man stop at the end -- try one of those drunk holding a carry out dinner in your hand and a open beer in the other :) :) :) :)

Here's what Brother ID is talking about, in general: http://www.economist.com/node/21555570
Funny thing too, as Sukhoi was and is top maker of Soviet/Russian fighter jets; but then Boeing doesn't do fighters either--"Stick to your knitting" holds true.

True, unless you do not classify the F18 as a fighter jet. :shock: Think most jet jockeys may respectfully disagree. :lol:

Sorry, Brother ID but I won't be got on this--what Boeing did was built a variant on an already proven platform. Not the same thing you'll agree: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_F/A ... per_Hornet
This just in: The Saudi Government in 2011 bought 154 F-15SA aircraft last year worth $29,400,000,000, the largest arms deal since the end of the Cold War. This all from Harper's Magazine Index. Here's what they got: http://www.aviationweek.com/Article.asp ... 410195.xml << This mod work done in St. Louis by, wait for it...Boeing, but again only rebuilding (and decontenting) an existing platform. Thumbs up however.
