Classic Aero-TV: 'We're Surviving'-- Kyle Franklin Describes Airshow Life 2013

From 2013 (YouTube Version): Dracula Lives On Through Kyle Franklin... and We're NOT Scared!

ANN CEO and Editor-in-Chief, Jim Campbell speaks with Aerobatic and airshow master, Kyle Franklin, at EAA AirVenture 2013. Kyle puts on a show that is fun to watch, exciting, and most important, it’s entertaining. Every airshow pilot has a carefully crafted flight routine, but Kyle is also known for being a showman.

He works the crowd, will talk to anyone, and plays to the kids. He is also “hep” to modern trends.  His custom built biplane, named Dracula, took Kyle 9 years to build. It’s a one-of-a-kind plane designed to give the thrill of the old barnstorming days yet provide the wild capabilities of a modern acro airplane.

In this video interview, Kyle talks about his acts, Dracula, and ­the airshow business past, present, and future. It’s getting tougher because economic conditions affect the willingness of a sponsor to produce an airshow. Kyle is the “Real Deal” and you’ll enjoy getting to know him.
