Flying with the Blue Angels
One of the things that I will really miss now that I no longer live in San Francisco, is Fleet Week. Every year in October the Blue Angels and other assorted flight teams come to town and buzz the city. It was always so exciting the first day they began practicing because the scream of the jet engines would echo throughout the city. You just have to love that.
The above video was taken from the back seat of Blue Angel #7 and it shows how intense it must be to ride shotgun in one of these high performance planes. Love it!!
