Jet or Aerobatic Flights as Passenger

I was just thinking, anyway to setup an intense flight as a passenger, like in VR.
Like on a plane doing aerobatics or a jet flying low through mountains, I dunno, just a thought.
Might be weird as a passenger.

When I was going for my commercial we were sitting in the flight instructors office and the conversation turned to motion sickness.

I mentioned I had never suffered from car sickness or sea sickness or air sickness; not even when I was coming home from Japan on a troop ship and we were caught in the northern end of a typhoon.

I thought it was a lot of fun.  I got all I could eat in the troop mess and even got to sit down and eat.  Normally you stood in line for a half hour or more and then had to stand up at a table to hurry up and eat and then get out of there to make room for those coming in.  I was even offered eggs for breakfast.

I did have to take my mattress and sleeping bag out into the passageway to sleep because of the stench in the troop compartment.

My flight instructor bet me a bottle of Jack Daniels that he could make me airsick.

We went out to the Citabria and he turned that airplane every which way but inside out.

When I came back a couple days later for a lesson a bottle of Jack Daniels was waiting for me.

The tires are worn.  The shocks are shot.  The steering is wobbly.  But the engine still runs fine.

The which you did not taste until after your lesson, right? 🤣

Which I actually gave to a friend.  I'm a The Glenlivet guy myself.  Or I used to be.  Now it's just a half glass of red wine before going to bed at night.
