If you ever have the chance to see The Blue Angels....don't miss it! Saw 'em twice in Wichita, KS outer edge of re-group....I could see the piolets head bob as the G-forces where hitting them

Being an Air Force Brat, I have seen probably around 25 shows, between the Blue Anges, and the Thunderbirds!

Normally was on the Air Force Base, but last year, saw the Blue Angels in St. Cloud, MN, and they had the F-22 Raptor there... the absolute most amazing plane in the world. The tricks are on the website: http://www.f22-raptor.com/

Click on the bottom middle, Langley Air Show Demo.. amazing.

Check also the first trick.... after going straight up, around the 32 second mark, the pilot does something I believe the annoncer called the table top. He basically, climbs, and climbs, stops the climb, flips the plane over at a seemingly complete stop, and then goes forward. Amazing. Now, he also literally stopped in mid-air, and did a 180 degree turn and kicked on the afterburners... that thing MOVES!!

If you ever get a chance to see this thing, you would never, ever, want to mess with the US! Air superiority!!! :0008

Same here. I usually avoid that area all together during the EAA. Many of my friends rent their houses to people who attend the show. They toss them the keys, grab the cash and head to Vegas for a free vacation.

I work with several people who rent out their places.


One guy moves into a tent in his yard for the week! Gimmie a break!!!!!!

Same guy rides his Goldwing to work right up until the first snow, because he can save .04 a day on gas........Eats the free meal I get at work every day when I pass on it........And brings $350 to Vegas for a week!
