Done this once and really enjoyed it. I went with a blind organization and we were paired up with people who flew planes small aircraft I did fly one and steered and was given instructions through headphones. It was actually really fun. I was very young though they did it for kids or teens and I was like yeah, this is neat I didn’t make decisions just did the work and the kinesthetic hands on stuff. It was worth it.

I was once offered a ride in a fighter jet - seriously. For some reason there was no rule against it, although I couldn't do it in the end because I was under the minimum weight limit for the ejection seat. Possibly there was no rule against it because nobody had ever thought to make a rule against something so mad, but apparently if only I'd been about one and a half times my actual weight I could have gone for a ride! Anti-G pants and everything.

I would love to, but I don't know anyone with a small plane. I did ride in a small helicopter once, and it was great! The pilot died in a crash a couple of years later.

I would totally try that, although the price seems like it would be insanely high. It seems like a super fun way to get some skills, and just try something new.
