On Thursday, Kat went up into the sky with the AeroShell Acrobatic Team for some mid-air acrobatics!

 

What an incredible experience! I have never in my life felt so exhilarated as I did when I was upside down mid-air. It was a combination of adrenaline, excitement and terror! Luckily, I didn't get sick (I was worried about that) and I didn't drop any F-bombs either (I was really really worried about that!)

I flew in the front plane with Team Lead, Mark Henley who is a 20 year airshow veteran. His flying record includes 80 different types of planes and is a certified flight instructor as well. Mark, along with his twin brother, Alan, co-founded the AeroShell Acrobatic Team.
