Kylie and her friend Courtney watching the instructional video. As you can tell, this was the most exciting part.
Puttin' on all the equipment. First some knee pads...
Then their instructor, Mike, shows her how to put on the flight suit.
I can do it, Mom!
Zipped up in the suit!
Courtney's all zipped into her suit too. What's next?
Oh yes...goggles of course. And earplugs. I guess it's kind of loud in the tunnel.
And the helmets. Kylie's trying to push her bangs out of her goggles because they were stuck. I helped her get all her hair stuffed up in her helmet and out of her eyes.
Waiting in the launch area with Courtney's dad.
She looks nervous, doesn't she? She didn't act like it though!
Flying with a little help from Mike. He was a great instructor!
Courtney's turn to fly!
The first of Kylie's two one-minute flights. At the end, Courtney's mom was asking me if that was a minute, and I checked the time on my video, and that's why I'm saying, "Yeah, yeah."
Second flight. I had no idea Mike was going to fly with her and take her so high, so that's why I sound surprised! At the end, Courtney's mom asked me why Kylie plugged her nose, and that's why I said I didn't know. Later, I asked Kylie, and she just said that air was going up her nose!
Well Courtney, what did you think? Thumbs up!
Kylie said, "That was awesome! Can we do it again?"
YaY Kylie!! That looked like SO MUCH FUN!!!
