St Louis County Airshow - final year


The world famous Blue Angels - I have seen them perform several times and they never disappoint. They have several different types of formations and maneuvers they fly in their Boeing F/A 18 Hornets. They are actually a recruiting force and goodwill ambassadors for the Navy and the Marines, not the Air Force.

These guys literally flew over me - no more than 250-300' wow!!



You can see what a great vantage point I had about 300' above the runway!!
