Question 1

Does it hurt?

Accepted Answer

Only if you want it to. While the XA-42 is capable of +10 / -10 Gs, we design every flight to start with gentler maneuvers and gradually move toward more aggressive ones, depending on what you're comfortable with.

Question 2

Will I get sick?

Accepted Answer

Maybe. It doesn't seem to matter whether you're a qualified pilot or it's your first flight -- we can't predict who will get sick and who won't. If you start to feel sick, your instructor can have the aircraft on the ground in about a minute and a half. While this is not medical advice, our experience has shown best results with Meclizine.

Question 3

How long should I plan to be there?

Accepted Answer

Please plan on being with us for approximately 4 hours. There are factors outside of our control, such as weather and mechanical issues, that we cannot predict. If we foresee any delays with your flight, we will do our best to contact you. If you are unable to fly, you will not be charged.

Question 4

What's your cancellation policy?

Accepted Answer

We require a 48-hour cancellation notice. Cancellations made inside of 48 hours will incur a $200 cancellation fee. No-shows will also be charged $200.

Question 5

How do I check availability?

Accepted Answer

Simply click the 'Book Now' button on the Packages page. You'll be taken to our calendar where you can see all available dates. We periodically add dates, posted 1 to 6 weeks in advance.

Question 6

Do you sell gift certificates?

Accepted Answer

Yes -- please email us at info@xtreme-flight.com or call 601-XFLIGHT.

Question 7

When will I get my video?

Accepted Answer

If you purchased the video package, your professionally edited video will be electronically delivered within 1 to 3 days after your flight.

Question 8

What should I wear?

Accepted Answer

No high heels. If you have long hair, please bring a tight hair tie. You will be asked to remove all jewelry, watches, and anything in your pockets, including cell phones, before the flight.

Question 9

Is it safe?

Accepted Answer

We cannot guarantee your safety. No form of aviation, or any adventurous activity, is without risk. By choosing to fly with us, you acknowledge and accept these inherent risks, which include the risk of injury or death.

Question 10

Is there a height and weight limit?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Maximum weight: 230 lbs. Maximum height: 6'1".

Question 11

What are the physical requirements?

Accepted Answer

You must be able to get into and out of the aircraft and fit properly in the seat with the harness secured.

Question 12

What if I have back or neck injuries?

Accepted Answer

We cannot give medical advice. Please contact your physician to see if this type of flight is appropriate for you.

Question 13

Do you provide headsets? Can I talk to the instructor during the flight?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You will be provided with a headset so you can communicate with your instructor throughout the entire flight.

Question 14

Can I bring my own camera or GoPro?

Accepted Answer

Yes, feel free to bring your own camera or GoPro. However, due to the nature of the flight, you will not be allowed to hold a camera or GoPro in your hands during the flight. We have GoPros securely mounted in the aircraft.

Question 15

Can I fly if I'm pregnant?

Accepted Answer

No.

Question 16

Do I need to be in good physical shape?

Accepted Answer

No. As long as you meet the height and weight requirements, no special physical fitness is required. The flight is designed for normal, everyday people.
