Tate High Guidance Counselor Ashley Turner Flies With The Blue Angels
July 8, 2022
Tate High School guidance counselor Ashley Turner had a chance to fly with the Blue Angels on Thursday.
“It was like an out of body experience; it really was,” Turner said. “He did start easy and once you do two G’s and you do three and four, and you start building your confidence. I couldn’t believe I didn’t feel bad. It was a once in a lifetime experience for sure. I’ll treasure it forever.”
Turner pulled a high of 7.4 G’s during the flight, and she did black out for a moment.

That sounds like a super fun experience
That must have been a great experience. I graduated from Tate in 1967. Miss Parker was the guidance counselor. She was a very sweet lady. I visited her a few times. If she had looked like you I would have needed a lot more counseling sessions I’m sure. Lol
What an awesome experience! Flying a jet was always my dream when I joined the Navy. Never was able to accomplish that dream. This would be something that I would love the opportunity to do some day. So awesome!!!
