I don't think you will have any problems. Those type of programs are designed for you to have a positive experience and would like for you to come back or recommend it to someone. They're not going to try and make you sick or see the tunnel. You'll have a blast.

Should I Eat Before I Fly?
Should I Eat Before I Fly?It is a common misconception that you should fly on an empty stomach. The truth is that you should adhere to your normal habit patterns. While it may not be advisable to eat a breakfast buffet just before your flight, you should have something in your stomach, perhaps a light breakfast, such as cereal or some fruit. Though you should always stay hydrated, it is probably a good idea to stay away from alcohol before an aerobatic flight

My old C Falcon does loopty loops inside your old D phantom's standard turn . Mine also has a gun. But you do gotta love that old trail leaving pig!

seen many young falcon drivers schooled, embarrassed, and sent to an early simulated grave in a 4 v. 1 16/4 by some grizzled old VN era guys
ETA: the F-4 had a gun, it just had to be hung under the belly

in close combat? all an f-16 needs to is go vertical. no disrespect to f-4.

just all depends on who's driving what

I remember reading a story once about a Marine Harrier pilot taking down like 4 F18s on a training mission.

When the sun, moon, stars and tides all align just right, anything is possible. Most would never have believed that an old Mig 15 or 17 could take down a state of the art Phantom back in the day, but they did.
