Blue Angels

Saturday was super! I got to see the Blue Angels perform live for the first time. It was soooo sweet. Ross and I went down to Mount Comfort and met up with Eric, Mr. Filson, Greg and Brad. We saw a MIG-17, 4 yaks, 2 Mustangs, 2 B-25s (including the only B-25J still flying), a P-38, a B-17, a PBY (very ugly but really cool flying boat), and a bunch of aerobatics performers. We also saw David and June Whitla and David showed us some sketches he made of some aircraft. Excellent work. The Aeroshell flight team put on a great show and the Blue Angels really capped it off well. They started off with their C-130 (Fat Albert) doing a jet assisted takeoff that was almost aewsome. Pics are on Ross's blog.
