Hey readers,

Did you know that November is National Aviation History Month? This is a time to celebrate the development of flight throughout history! Here are some cool facts about aviation that we’ve put together to celebrate:

• Amelia Earhart was the first woman aviator to fly across the Atlantic Ocean in 1928.
• Pilots and co-pilots can’t eat the same meal while in flight!
• There are 3 million people in the air at any given time in an airplane!
• 1/3 of your taste buds get numb while flying!
