NORTH KINGSTOWN, R.I. (CBS) --- The Rhode Island National Guard Open House and Air Show will land in town this weekend.

Established in 1991, the air show raises money for local charities such as the Children's Fund.
Carl took a ride Wednesday, in the Jack Link's 300 but from the looks of his tweets, the ride didn't last too long.
Here's a Twitter account of his experience:

After screaming into the sky, flying upside down, and tumbling through the air, I asked the pilot if he would mind taking us down. #wbz

Man, oh man, this morning's ride in an "aerobatic plane" took my breath, and almost my stomach, away. #wbz #airshow

Jeff is the pilot what took me on a ridiculous ride in this little aerobatic plane. #wbz pic.twitter.com/U5tPLyZT2F

I thought I was a man before I took a ride in this thing. Now I know I'm just a little boy with jelly legs. #wbz pic.twitter.com/KJxbBtqyn5
