Aerobatic Ride with Brett Hunter

This is a regular blog entry. Looking for show notes? See below.

Met Brett Hunter at Sandusky County Regional Airport (KS24) yesterday to get a media ride in anticipation of his appearance at the Selfridge ANGB Air Show July 21 and 22. Interviewed Brett and got as much of an aerobatic ride as my stomach could handle (nowhere near as much as I would like to have done, but I wasn’t about to hurl in an aircraft that beautiful!).

Absolutely amazing. And Brett is as cordial and expert a ride pilot as anyone could ask for. A consummate pro. Impressive as hell.

I will never forget the hammerhead. I hope that there are many more, but I will never forget that hammerhead. Just like watching it in an IMAX, only with really authentic wind and g-forces!

Editing the episode now and will likely have it up by Friday, June 15.
