4. Fly in a MiG-29 fighter jet
LOCATION: NIZHNY NOVGOROD, RUSSIA
PRICE:FROM $13,000
AIRPORT: NIZHNY NOVGOROD (GOJ)
WHY: Top Gun, Russian style. The MiG-29 might be a relic from the Cold War, but its famous turbojet engines and ridiculous power-to-mass ratio make it one of the most maneuverable planes on the planet. Fly over Russia at 2½ times the speed of sound while imagining yourself and Comrade Goose in life-and-death air-to-air combat. Supersonic travel for civilians in the U.S. is illegal, so if you want to travel that fast, this is your chance.
