Blue Angels in Florida

Postby pfevrier » Wed Feb 09, 2011 4:05 pm

Over at Witham Field, in Stuart. My brother sent me a link to a very cool video about a Blue Angels' flight where new school and old school were flying together, F18s with F8Fs. Here's the link: http://rightnetwork.com/episodes/860061618
After watching the video, here are my shots. Enjoy!

Great shots and absolutley WONDERFUL video! I am going to the airshow at KROC in July and the Blues are going to be there, so I'm really excited!  ;) :)
I went outside once. The graphics weren't all that great.

Burn the land and boil the sea, you can't take the sky from me.

Saw the vid the other day, wonderful. Also, great shots, but #2 is awesome. :)

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Thank you all for the comments!
#1 and 2 are my favorites, with #1 being a little ahead, I just love its colors and those BIG props! #2 has some cool elements with the runway and taxiways and all the lights... My 2 cents  ;D

By the way, I saw the F8F Blue Angel #1 at Oshkosh. Stunning bird. I could not help but stand there beside the tail with a deer-in-headlights look. Found out too it was THEE F8F Bearcat that I watched get restored at the Kalamazoo Air Zoo here in Michigan when I was little. Saw it in the museum after it was restored too and on display. So great to see it fly, especially in the colors of the Blue Angels!

I actually helped restore that F8F, it use to belong to Lone Star Flight Museum in Galveston. Its a great looking Bearcat here in the Sim...But Im wondering who's model is it? Where do I get it? 8-)

Saw that aircraft at the Jacksonville NAS airshow about 2 weeks ago. Shame the weather was crap though.
