Sun 'n Fun 2007


Work sent me to Sun 'n Fun and I was fortunate enough to catch a ride with the Aeroshell Aerobatic Team.  I flew backseat in Aeroshell 1 piloted by Alan Henley.  We spent about 30 minutes in the air doing at least three loops, two barrel rolls, and some other formation flying.  What a blast!  Here are some shots of the flight.

A co-worker of mine flew backseat in Aeroshell 3 on this flight.  He took several photos as well so I've posted some of them here.  The photos with the date stamps are his.
