BTW, I'll try to get some vid. Probably won't get the Blue Angels though as I'll be busy.(might get someone else to tape it) I've never edited vid before, but I'll post it if I figure it out in time. 50%

| Bad-ass Super Contributer! ![]() | Well, as you already know, yesterday at Seymour Johnson AFB, the Blue Angels took to the sky for their first airshow since the tragedy on April 21'st when Lt. Cmdr. Kevin Davis died during an airshow in South Carolina. Instead of the usual six man formations, the Blue Angels used a five man formation as Lt. Cmdr. Craig Olsen( who replaced Lt. Cmdr Davis) hasn't had enough practice in the formations yet. Unfortunately I had prior obligations and was unable to record the flights, but they put on a great show. Fat Albert kicked the their portion of the show off with the JATO C-130 takeoff, then the Blue Angels tore up the sky like they had something to prove. If you can find a video of the performance, it sure is worth watching. Also appearing today were the Army's Golden Knights, Patty Wagstaff, the Red Baron Pizza Squadron, as well as an F-15E demonstration flight from the 4'th Fighter Wing, an F-22 Raptor demonstration, an F-117 Nighthawk, F-86, the Flying Farmer, the AFR Jet car, C-17 Globemaster, USAF heritage flight, and a Pearl Harbor reinactment.(as well as various other warbirds) The airshow was in celebration of the 4'th Fighter Wing's 50'th Birthday. For more information about the 4'th Fighter wing, check out www.seymourjohnson.af.mil Here's some pics that I took, I'll try to get Patty Wagstaff's vid up soon as well as some more pics. I need to find a way to convert the file to a WMV to use WMM. Have a great day! 50%

Sorry about the quality on some of these pics. Planes were moving and things can get blury. I went through the pics and took out all the bad ones, so I hope you enjoy all these. 50%

Sure was! Unfortunately, I was running from my room to get a good view, but only got the last pass on video. Too bad they didn't demo the F-35. Would have been pretty darn sweet as well. 50%
