The Chicago Air and Water Show is less than two days away, and we're giving you an inside preview.
CBS 2's Marissa Parra took the ride of a lifetime on the KC-135 Stratotanker, which is used to refuel other planes up in the sky, allowing them to stay in the air for longer.The level of athleticism required of these pilots is incredible, just from the sheer force of travelling so fast.
He said getting to go home this weekend, where he first told his family he wanted to be part of the Chicago Air and Water Show one day, has made for a surreal experience The refueling you'll see at the Air and Water Show is a simulation, but Parra actually got to watch the real thing happen in the skies.
The performers will be doing a dress rehearsal on Friday before the full show Saturday and Sunday, so keep your eyes on the skies.
