The Navy Blue Angels and the Air Force Thunderbirds always put on a great show. The best demonstration of precision flying there is, those pilots are only inches away from a major mid-air collision at any moment. Hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable celebration of America's birthday.

I work about 10 miles from there. I guess they were practicing Thursday and Friday, saw them all day both days. Buzzed the shop Thursday. Loud, about make the windows rattle.

Saw the Blue Angels one time a few years ago. Very impressive. Those boys have to have their stuff together. Go USA.

I saw the Canadian Snow Birds fly 9 planes in formation at Oshkosh years ago. They were very impressive also. The Blue Angles always puts on a show at Traverse City Cherry Festival every year but somebody goofed this year all in the name of Covid!

They were here the 12/13 weekend in June for 'Deke Slayton Airfest'. Wonderful show, but noisy! Hard to imagine them being that close together at those speeds! That's what precision is all about.
