After being inspired by attending his hometown airshow as a child, Luke Carrico began a lifelong love for aviation and air shows which is shown in his enthusiasm and demeanor announcing aerial events across North America and internationally.  

Luke began his initial flight training while in high school, flying single-engine airplanes well before he was able to drive.  He became very involved with his local air show, supporting all aspects of air show planning and coordination.  In college, he expanded his flying experience by accumulating a variety of advanced flying endorsements while simultaneously absorbing the mentorship by some of the industry's top pilots and entertainers.

Luke has dedicated much of his life to the art form of air show announcing, and it is shown in every show he commentates.  In addition to his presentation skills, Luke also serves as an independent contractor for aerial events nationally, working as a civilian consultant for local municipalities as well as the U.S. military.  He has been invited to participate in some of the largest and most prestigious air shows in the country and serves as an emcee & presenter at the annual International Council of Air Shows (ICAS) convention in Las Vegas each year.
