Definitely a must-do when you're in Vegas - Definitely one of the wildest things i have ever done in Vegas and in life! Unforgettable! I highly recommend doing this! It's really worth it!

Bucket list experience of a lifetime - My wife and I flew last weekend. We are still struggling to describe how much fun this was. Our pilots were friendly, polite and professional. They made us feel at ease the entire time! This is an experience that so few get the privilege of having. And WE DID IT! From briefing to landing, it is something we will NEVER forget!

🤘😝🤘 - One of the best full send experiences.I've got to enjoy in a while, it was high-octane, full speed and more g's. Then most people can handle.

Fantastic - 30th anniversary! Absolutely amazing and wonderful. Everything was top notch. Zero complaints, only praise from us. Highly highly recommended.

Best Money I Ever Spent! - So grateful to SkyCombat Ace for providing the opportunity for regular folks like me to experience such unforgetable thrills! Everything and everyone involved with SkyCombatAce are first class! I would like to thank: Jackie - who shuttled me to and from the hotel to the airfield-very much enjoyed some great conversation. Cavan- who got me squared away with paperwork and made it EZ peezy. Pilot Caroline- who gave me a very clear instructional briefing. And most of all--- Pilot Ian-Such a chill dude! His fun and confident manner and ability to guide non-pilots like me through these awesome maneuvers was very much appreciated!

Absolutely amazing must... - Absolutely amazing must do experience! Not for the faint of heart and worth every penny!! Knowledgeable, skilled pilots who guide you through doing stunts yourself.

AMAZING Once in a Lifetime Experience!! - My son and I did the Sky Combat package in which we were each in our own plane and you have a dog fight. You are actually flying the plane as you chase each other up, down, and through sharply banked turns as you try to get the other plane in your sights for a kill. It is impossible to describe the feeling of this - we’ve been trying all day! Make sure you order the video package - it captures everything and is a great souvenir to this once in a lifetime experience. Inverted flying, high-speed turns, and a final maneuver which had the plane kart-wheeling through the air, were all part of the experience. A big shoutout to our pilots Caroline and Dalton who made this experience absolutely AMAZING!!

Everyone needs to experience this. Your Top Gun experience all the way. Highly recommended! - I do not think there is anything like this on the planet. This is a once in a lifetime experience I plan on having again! The team is amazing from start to finish. The photos you get afterward make it memorable. My wife and I went up and we did their extended dog-fighting experience. Highly recommended. The pilots were easy to work with and made sure we had the ride of our lives! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Soooooo good.

Once in a lifetime - This was incredible!!! Time of our lives. Holy crap there is no way to describe how crazy and fun this experience was. Caroline and Dalton are baddies in the sky and we felt so safe.

Disappointing experience - We did the Sky Combat Experience in a group of 3 with the Red Rock Canyon Scenic Thrill Ride add-on. This tour could have been great, but equipment problems ruined it. Skip to the end for a list of tips to avoid having my experience. The tour started out smoothly with pickup from our hotel on the strip, check-in + safety briefing + upsells for add-on packages/video, and a bit of wait as the folks signed up for our timeslot had to be split into 2 groups of 3. SCA folks on the ground were friendly and professional. Once it was our turn, they took us out to the hangar and paired us up with our pilots. They skipped the flight suits for us due to warmer weather, but it's pretty cold in the air, definitely worth keeping them. Our pilots strapped us in, added cameras to the planes, and got us going. Unfortunately, this is where the problems began. Although the pilot did a comms check on the ground, what was barely understandable on the ground due to radio noise, was almost incomprehensible in the air, and I should have spoken up when I couldn't properly hear/understand what was being said during the pilot's initial ATC comms. We took off, and our pilots started us with the Red Rock add-on. The was a pretty cool experience, though it did involve a number of rolls that made me a bit nauseous. Probably would have preferred to do this at the end versus at the beginning of the flight, so I could be at 100% when it was my turn to take the controls. Once this was done, we headed higher for the dogfight. Bad comms really took their toll here. I got yelled at for touching the controls too early/late when I thought I was told your controls, and we seemed to be waiting/circling even after I said I was good to go after a short nausea break. Unable to hear where we were in the fight, I had one chance to actually take the controls, and was getting instructions I couldn't properly hear from the pilot, which led to them taking control again. Out of the entire flight, I had the controls for maybe 5-10 seconds and wasn't able to participate in a single run with my friends. Major disappointment. After we landed, we spoke to some folks in the group that went before us, and apparently one of them had the same issue with their headsets, so it wasn't just me. For something that cost our group $6k~ in total all-in, that I had been looking forward to and hyping up to my friends for months (I actually turned friends down on this, since there wasn't availability for more of us), given my experience in the air, I was pretty disappointed leading to my 2/5 star rating. If you're planning on doing any variation of this experience, here are some things I wish I had done that you can do to make your experience better than mine: 1. Please test your headset on the ground, and let your pilot know if you can't hear CLEARLY (audio should not be fuzzy). Everything is understandable on the ground with no engine noise, it's another story altogether when you're in the air. You should be able to hear the ATC comms. Above all else, not doing this and finding out I couldn't properly communicate with the pilot when it was too late ruined the experience for me. 2. I don't know if I missed this because of the broken headset, but during the safety briefing they mentioned your pilot would tell you what to do in the air - mine didn't do this, so worth asking on the ground. 3. Definitely worth running through the itinerary with your pilot before takeoff - we expected the acrobatics/red rock add-on to happen after the dogfight, but it happened first which left us all not feeling great (nausea) when it came time to take control - the thrill ride had a lot of rolls. That said, the add-on is definitely worth it and was what made this a 2/5 instead of 1/5 stars, I would ask to do it after the dogfight though for a better experience. 4. Apparently other pilots did this with my friends, but mine didn't - It's definitely worth talking to your pilot about how intense you want the thrill ride to be before you take off. 5. Use the flight suits, even if it's warm on the ground. It's quite cold at altitude and you have outdoor air blowing on you the whole flight from the dash vents.
