Had a chance to fly an Aero L-29 Delfin fighter jet yesterday.
my CFI is also an insturctor and flies airshow in the L-29 so he hooked me up for a ride. We did some basic aerobatics, aeileron and 4-point rolls, inverted and vertical flight, steep turns, slow flight, and lazy-8's. I managed to leave the sick sac empty, but I think if I had eaten lunch it might have been a different story.
Here is the front cockpit:
And here is my seat in back:

We made it to the Frozen Four last year, but the entire ECAC is in a developmental period right now, so no one really seems to be in the running. We won a first round bye into the ECAC tourney, so we'll see how it goes (Clarkson on Friday).
