I gotta say, I’ve never been too impressed by these guys. The unit cost of an F/A-18 Hornet is between 40-60 million dollars. You’d BETTER be able to do some impressive acrobatics for that kind of money.
To see the United States Navy’s Blue Angels properly you have to spend the Fourth of July at the National Cherry Festival in Traverse City Michigan. Free seating, standing or boating on the west Grand Traverse Bay and some of the cleanest water in the country, with the entire Blue Angels show as your entertainment.
