Fan in San Diego Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 They left out San Diego on the schedule. They fly at Miramar every year. I forget which month, I think in August. But anyways, they fly over my house many times during the show, it's awesome ! I never get tired of it ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HBSS151 Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 I'll watch the Blue Angels when Air Force pilots start doing boat shows. There are more planes in the ocean than submarines in the sky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HBSS151 Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 Whats the difference between them ? Thunderbird wingwipers can't land on a moving ship - they need yards and yards of concrete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Big Cat Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 There are more planes in the ocean than submarines in the sky I like that. Am I the only person who thinks the Blue Angels and air-shows in general are a collosal waste of gas and money? Does the world really need more noise pollution? Not that airplanes aren't really cool, and fast, and ultima-killing machines and all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wright-Pat's where they keep all those space aliens from Arizona. And black helicoptors...day and night, night and day..our skies here are filled with 'em.

I respect the pilots and all, but it is a wast of money, too freakin' loud and dangerous as well. (Especially when they used to buzz downtown San Francisco for two days.) With that said, it's fairly cool to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Navy Chief Navy Pride Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 I'll watch the Blue Angels when Air Force pilots start doing boat shows. The Navy has more planes than the Air Force does!!! NOT ONE Air Force pilot is qualified to land on an Aircraft Carrier!!! That my friend is actual and factual!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HBSS151 Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 Telephone poles are necessary. So are F-15's and F-16's - it just depends on what you need Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Big Cat Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 So are F-15's and F-16's - it just depends on what you need so the American people need to be deafened/wowed by priceless, highly volatile air craft? I understand the need for combat, but we're talking about flying around in circles so a bunch of half-drunk people in lawn chairs can say, "ooooooo."
