Blue Angels
« on: June 30, 2015, 10:49:34 pm »
Today the Blue Angles flew over my house as they were coming in to Eau Claire for our air show over the weekend.   Looking forward to their display on the 4th.  Should be extra special!

I got an autographed picture of them when i was about ten.. they were at a local air show..  I was always impressed by them after seeing their show in person.

They fly the 4th
Is that why they fly in formations of four?

They almost always fly in formations of four.  My cousin traveled with them for a few years as one of their chief mechanics until he retired from the navy.
