Wow, that would be exciting to have Christian... but I wouldn't wanna pay the fuel bill :-)
Below a picture of a Su27P jet taken on one of the last airshows at Ostend EBOS near where I live (the shows were canceled a few years later after an accident happened), about halfway the nineties.
I was standing just behind the fence from where this picture was taken in the old not-yet-digital way.
Pilot at the event was Anatoliy Kvochur, giving us some wonderfull passes very low over the runway including an impressive Cobra that made the hairs at the back of your neck stand upright :-)
Ever since, that aircraft has grasped my attention.
When standing so close, the sound of starting the engines without ear protection is nearly killing you... an incredible high pitch&whine tone
Here's a video of the same jet/pilot on another event:
