Go for the 2-seat Hunter; the only swept wing jet cleared for inverted spins.

Or, for sheer grunt, get down to South Africa and have a go in Mike Beachyhead's 2 seat Lightning.

For my big one (the 5-0), I got a flight deck ride, sitting immediately behind the captain and in in front of the FE, in BA Concorde, G-BOAD, pushback to shut down, mach 2.02 and 60,000 feet. That's one no-one can do now.
