That must have cost a small fortune.
On behalf of our Captain and entire crew, thank you for flying PWA.
Puke World Airlines is a wholly owned subsidiary of Crap Your Pants, Inc.
No Wires or green screen….but lots of cuts. The vomit comet can only give….12? or 20? seconds of zero G’s. then you normally get positive G’s to reset the course. Not all that expensive–just a plane ride.
Hmmmmm…..I do wonder for “special” cases how long the vomit comet could provide zero g’s. I don’t think 3 minutes is possible given the speeds required.
You’re assuming they went on the Vomit Comet.
Perhaps they got the special rides that Perkel’s been looking for. First clue is if this group is never seen again.
$4,950 + 5% tax: Weightless flight to include 15 parabolic maneuvers creating 20-30 seconds of weightlessness each.

The cost for a private ZERO-G Experience® is $165,000 + 5% tax and can accommodate up to 34 participants.
Plus paying for the cameraman, camera, props, cleanup, pre and post production, actors, at least one practice run, etc. = a small fortune.
The airline also got a big tag at the end, so this worked as a really elaborate ad for them. The song was completely forgettable.
ok and the point is?
I this the new DU, pointless?
It can be all doom and gloom all the time, sometimes you just need something light and fun.
Agreed, thanks!
