Photo Gallery: Thousands Attend Blue Angel Air Show
August 18, 2011
Thousands of people turned out for a Blue Angels practice Wednesday morning in Pensacola, including many North Escambia area residents.
As always, the Blues wowed the crowd at the Pensacola Naval Air Station with their show. Blue Angel practice shows are held on select dates at the National Naval Aviation Museum and are free to the public. Most of the Wednesday practices are followed by an autograph session in the museum.

The Blue Angels Homecoming Air Show will be November 11 and 12 at Pensacola NAS.

First time actually seeing the Blue Angels. What a show! Great precision, talent and artistry in air!
It would be nice if the Blues could buzz the local sandbars with their afterburners on. A little airshow for those of us up the road.
Those are remarkable pictures in the photo album@! I’ve never seen the pilots’ faces while they are flying before.
