Las Vegas Hilton offers "MiG Experience"

[wbarnhill]

Except you replace MiG with L-39 Jet Trainer, and you have a pilot who says something like this:

"This is not a ride simulation," says Captain Cox, "this is a genuine Soviet-era high-performance military aircraft, with a top speed of 600 miles per hour. Its power and maneuverability are unmatched in a jet of this type."

I guess if you're being promotional you're allowed to claim the VNE as the "Top Speed"...

All's far in love, war and advertising.

Forgive the non-pilot journalists, for they know not what they speak.

William, do you have a link? I dropped a considerable amount at the LV Hilton in July and nobody mentioned a flight sim. I didn't even get to ride the elevator real fast. I don't see anything on their site.

Thanks, Mike

If that L-39 is a MiG, then my Grumman Tiger is a Hellcat.
