Two teams of eight contestants go through the training regimen and practice drills that real military pilots do and graded by real life instructors. Every week, the lowest scoring member of each team is then put into a real dogfight...with live ammo. The winner automatically earns immunity for the next week. The loser goes home, either with his head hung in shame from ejecting from the cockpit like a pansy...or in a bodybag. Flight simulation? No, this is flight STIMulation!
