Just found this video of the RAF flying the Tornado at low level and thought some of you may enjoy it.

Even in the Navy A C M did not make me woozy-light headed or lose my lunch.  2funny Not even close! Good perspective with that camera from the port side. The break over the airfield prior to touchdown brought back some memories. The break over an aircraft carrier looks a wee mite different!  2funny THANKS-good video!  cooldude RIDE SAFE.

Actually, all your puke is held inside your oxygen mask.... the gift that keeps on giving.

While rolling for takeoff in the backseat of an F16B, my pilot (Wing CC) told me if I had to puke I was to turn my mike volume off.... he didn't like listening to it.  This was not exactly reassuring.  I never puked, but did almost pass out under the Gs from a full afterburner straight up takeoff.

Much of my flight was just like in the video, except we were in much taller southern Turkey Taurus mountains, and also flew inverted through a mountain valley-pass that had been traveled by Alexander the Great and his elephants.  Awesome does not even cover it.
