My wife bought this for me and my son to enjoy and we sure did ! It takes some time to get the hang of it, once you do BOOM it is on ! I expect it would have been more intense with a group of 4 people, still we had a BLAST! I will be going back to try the WW2 planes next time :) and also ... time flies when you are having fun (puns fully intended) so enjoy every minute of your time in the seat even if it is crashing and burning ;)

What a terrific experience! My husband has always wanted to fly, so figured what better than a flight simulator?! It was a total of 4 of us and everyone enjoyed. Nathan was very detailed with his training, but nonetheless, this was the real deal, not as simple as I had imagined. LOL. We will definitely be coming back!

Lightning you are the man.Thank you for an awesome experience with me and my son Dillon on Saturday. My son just wouldnt shut up talking about how much fun he had and when are we going back. I must say it was a little challenging at first but once we were going it was awesome.Thank you again Lightning for a great experience.Hope to see you soon.Joe LeBlanc

Really cool experience. Went with a friend and had a blast dog fighting. Whether youre an experienced pilot or not, you will not be disappointed. Nathan did a great job explaining everything and made sure we had fun. I can’t wait to come back with a few more friends so we can really go nuts!

Me and a buddy went to check this place out. After a brief introduction we were taken into this dark room and sat down in seats that were like a fighter plane. I was pleasantly surprised with this place.Our instructor, Lightning was very helpful on explaining the equipment. After about 45 minutes, I was really getting the hang of it. Now that I know how to operate the equipment, I cant wait for my next experience. See you soon,Perry

Had a blast I have flow for years but nothing like that. And the only thing faster than the F15 was the time could have stayed there another hour. Thanks Nathan

Took my boyfriend for Valentines Day. Was like his childhood games on steroids!! He loved it! And I had a BLAST!!! The simulation was absolutely neat, and Nathan was hilarious and a great instructor. Cant wait to bring our friends with us next time!

My son was really looking forward to this experience. It was his birthday present. After finally setting up the appointment, we travelled across town only to find what seemed like an abandoned facility, surrounded by vacant business suites, in a dumpy little plaza. I immediately got the feeling that it wasnt legitimate. We had printed documents confirming our reservation, in case there were any mixups, as we paid a significant amount of money for it. What we couldnt have planned for was nobody being there! Even though Google states that their business hours were 10am-4pm that day, and we were there at our scheduled time of 11:30am, the door was locked. We banged on the door and waited for 20 minutes for someone to show up, but nobody ever did! We called a few numbers that we found posted in various places, but they all redirected us to the same recorded message. However, leaving a message was impossible, as their mailbox was full. Obviously, they arent very concerned about supporting their customers in any way!I cant tell you how embarrassing and upsetting it was to drive all the way back home, with the look of disappointment on my sons face! Telling him that I was sorry didnt help, and didnt make up for the fact that he just got robbed of his birthday present.Stay away from this company! They dont deserve your money! Youd be better off doing something else! Too bad 1 star was the lowest rating that I could give, because a complete ripoff isnt even worth that much!!!

Squadron Ops is awesome! Went there with my wife just as a random little date and had an amazing time! It really was a blast. My wife and I have no background or interest in planes/flying, but this was extremely fun! I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun time or just a random date! Great for groups too! It was very life like!

HAD A BLAST! Went here with friends to celebrate my birthday. IT ROCKED. We had so much fun.the notes:Place is cleanOwner is professionalGetting there is easyShooting your friends out of the sky is fun and cathartic!and when your done flying (or crashing) you can go into the other room and race.It was awesome, and I am most definitely going back again!

It was one of the best experiences ive ever had. I am an x-plane simulator fan, and thought that his system is an already existing one. However, it turns out that he made that system (WOW). I would come back again for sure.

Fantastic, the flying experience in a fighter jet simulator felt like the real thing! I really enjoyed myself.. I will be doing this again soon!!

This was an awesome experience. Instructor was nice. Well definitely return.

Had a great time today. Definitely want to go again.

Omg im a beginner but Lightning did a great job as an instructor and i had tons of fun with my husband with this experience. We will definitely be returning

Nathan great CFII. Best of the best

Great fun, even though my son had a 3:1 kill ratio against me, and Im the career pilot!. Our instructor, Nathan, gave a detailed preflight briefing, and he showed great patience in teaching us inflight to refine our techniques. Multiple scenarios and aircraft are offered. We flew WWII warbirds in Europe and the South Pacific. What a blast! We will do it again. Next time, perhaps well go new school in jets with BVR (beyond visual range) sensors and missiles.

OK, so this is a strange business in the 1st place and a little embarrassing to say I am actually into SIMS. However, this is kinda cool. I was expecting a normally lit room with a couple computer desks and vertical blinds making clanking sounds when they knocked into each other when the a/c kicked on. Plus a couple of 17-23 year old acne covered dorks with cracking voices and cheesy one-liners working there. Not farther from reality. The outside of the place certainly made me think of the aforementioned. Going inside wasnt much better. I passed up a room and saw a rack of aviation suits hanging and I though to myself...please tell me they dont make us wear aviation suits to sit in front of a computer; get a grip, its a video game. Well, they dont. But I am afraid to know if people actually do dress out. That is a bit much.So I was met with the guy who would later help me and my friend out. Very down to Earth intelligent mature 45-55 year old ex-Air Force pilot probably just not wanting to be bored and wanting to make some extra cash.The room was dark and made to look kinda army-like. There were a bunch of computer monitors in front of a makeshift cockpit. It doesnt take much to realize that whomever put this together spent a ton of money on equipment. The processing power of the those computers (and probably a main server) could probably run half the country. The instructor was great. He was good at dumbing things down and went over how planes fly and how to dogfight in real life. He then patiently went over the controls on the SIM. He let us get warmed up and then turned us loose while never leaving either of our sides for advice and help.The SIM ran perfectly. No hiccups. You wear a rather light headpiece which you can hear other people and what was really cool was that the computer screens would move vantages depending on where you looked. It was very easy to fly. There is no doubt that the computer SIM had been dumbed down so that anyone could fly. No take off and no landing. It starts in mid flight perfectly level. I do have limited experience with flight SIMS like XPlane and Infinite Flight and with just that basic experience I can assure that this has been dummy proofed because I can hardly fly straight in Xplane. Let alone in a real deal flight SIM in a F18 perfectly coming out of controlled rolls at 500 knots. And my friend never been on a SIM crashed the plane only once. But that is all a plus. When spending that much money, you dont want to spend it crashing or not getting off the ground.I loved the experience. It is not cheap so Its not someplace Ill be every Saturday but I would do it again if I saw a sale.

Great time
