I had to work in a booth and do some crowd control, but I was able to take a few pics. Oh, and I have a freakin sunburn from being out there both days. Anyone here get to go??

The Blue Angels are badasses, that's for sure.

I forget if they're America's answer to Canada's Snowbirds or if it's the other way around, but either way, aero-batics kick ass.

The only time I've seen the Blue Angels in action was in a video... Van Halen's "Dreams".

yes they are! very close family tho in briefing before flight they take a pen and act like its the joystick they go throught the whole routine. Nothing like it in the world to be in one.

Yes I did, probably nearly 30 years ago in Pensacola. My fathers sister family lived in Gulf Breeze. We went down every other summer. My Uncle worked on the Base, civilian, ex sailor.

I saw the Air Force Thunderbirds once too.

Air shows are alot of fun
