RE: Zero G Aircraft
This Boeing 727 can hold up to 38 paying passengers, at $5,000 per person, or you may take their platinum flight, which is limited to 12 passengers, at $10,000 per person. They climb to 32,000 feet and then do a 1.8 negative G force dive to 24,000 feet and then up again for a total of 15 times. When they are approaching the 32,000 feet mark, everyone is instructed to get out of their seats located in the aft of the aircraft and lay flat on their back in the padded area. As the aircraft begins the nose dive from 32,000 feet downward, they then experience approximately 20 seconds of weightlessness. There are no major structural enhancements made to the aircraft, but the maintenance and safety checks are much more often and thorough than required.
