In this episode, we are thrilled to bring you part one of our interview with airshow performer Kyle Franklin. Kyle is well known for his "Drunk Pilot" comedy act, his Dracula act, and his previous act Pirated Skies. Kyle talks about his family history in aviation, and how he got into the airshow business. We will bring you part two of our interview in our next episode!
