So getting my OR soon! Yaaaaay!
I would like to showcase/wow my spouse/kids with the experience, but they don't fly. Any suggestions on how it can be done?
I guess I could strap them in in an "easy" a/c to fly, e.g., A-10C or something similar, teach them the basics of pitch/roll with the stick and have them start at a high enough altitude that they cannot crash easily.
But from what I've read the wow factor comes from, e.g., flying low and fast through Vegas or hill terrain, maybe in a helo such as the Gazelle or an a/c such as the Spit, which would be beyond their skills.
So, how to maximize the wow factor and let them see it?
I was thinking of some convoluted arrangement where they wear the headset and I fly in a second seat using the monitor, but don't know if that will work in terms of room.
Alternatively, would it be possible for me to fly a while, and record/save the track, and then have them wear the VR doing the replay?
Any ideas?
