Just back from days three and four of the five days at the Battle Creek Field of Flight Airshow. As you can see from the picture,lots of cool stuff happened. For one thing, I got a balloon flight, courtesy of Dave Emmert in Cloud Nine. I also met and interviewed a Thunderbird, a Snowbird, and several others. Lots of editing and production to do, but we'll get the material up and on both the podcast and the blog as soon as we can.

Ugly crash. I got an interview with Maj. Jeremy Sloan, the operations officer of the Thunderbirds and pilot of the No. 7 jet on 2 July at Battle Creek. That interview will air in a few weeks - after Part 3 of So you Want to Be an Astronaut. I also talked with the No. 3 Snowbird.
These guys (and now gals) do risky stuff and train hard for it. I found the radio calls interesting. I gather that "knock it off" is a Pro Word for "end of show and put the contingency plan into effect."
