Incredible Space Flight Training: Don't Leave
Earth Without It!
DO YOU HAVE THE RIGHT
STUFF?
Test Yourself with Space Flight Training
How:
We use ex-military jets to simulate space flight conditions. The
L-39 shares many characteristics of jets used by NASA to prepare
astronauts for space travel. Flight profiles have been designed
to demonstrate the type of sustained g-forces and weightlessness
you’ll experience during a suborbital flight.
Why: The more prepared you
are for the physical and mental demands of spaceflight, the more
you’ll enjoy your suborbital flight. We think you’ll love your
training flights in the L-39, but there’s a slight chance you’ll
discover you can’t tolerate high Gs or don’t like being weightless.
If that’s the case, it’s better to find out now, before you pay
$ 200,000 for a suborbital flight. Besides...this training is
a lot of fun.
What if?: You don’t
have to be planning to leave earth soon to enroll in space flight
training. If you want to know what it’s like to train like an
astronaut, you can. The program is open to anyone who meets basic
eligibility requirements.
Where: The ground portion
of our training takes place at Van Nuys Airport in California,
near Los Angeles. Flights take place in air space designated for
subsonic and supersonic training flights.
When: Training is typically
offered on weekends and is available year round. Advance scheduling
is necessary.
Know: You must pass an FAA
medical prior to participating in this program.
