Well that's awesome.

"You’ll get a thrilling approx. 45-50 minutes jet ride including:

- A walk around the MiG-29 jet including detailed explanations

- Cruising at double Supersonic Speed (Mach 2)

- Manoeuvres such as rolls, steep diving and climbing and more, depending on what your worked out plan together with the pilot

- A fantastic view onto the earth from above

- You will see the curvature of the earth

- Possibility to control the jet"

"45-50 minutes MiG-29 flight costs EUR 17,500"

That's almost affordable. If my wife ever leaves me, I'm doing this.

Since you can see the curvature of the earth you can also prove it’s round. Big bonus.

Everyone knows they have specially shaped cockpit glass that warps your FOV to give the appearance of a round earth.

Well, you only see that it's bent - you don't go all the way around. Might as well be an upside down wok pan.

It's 4 elephants on a turtle swimming through space.
