Blue Angels Change NAS Pensacola Practice Times

March 11, 2014

The Blue Angels are changing their Tuesday and Wednesday weekly practice demonstration times onboard Naval Air Station Pensacola (NASP) for the 2014 air show season. The scheduled practice demonstrations will now begin at 11:30 a.m. onboard the air station.

This change more closely matches the time the Blue Angels typically perform at air shows. The later practice time will also help alleviate some of the traffic arriving onboard the base during the busy morning commute.

The Blue Angel pilots will be at the National Naval Aviation Museum Wednesdays immediately following the practice demonstration to meet the public and sign autographs.

Public viewing of the Blue Angel practice demonstrations is available at the designated seating area behind the museum.

    Our twelve year old grandson will be visiting us the last week in March on Perdido Key. When we asked him what he wanted to do while he was here, “the best thing is to see the Blue Angels” he replied. We are just thrilled that the Blue Angels will be back for his visit!

    We love the Blue Angels. Started taking my sons to watch them fly over 40 years ago. Watching them fly makes one realize how blessed we are to live in the land of the free and the brave. And also how grateful we should be to all of our military who risk their lives everyday for us. It is sad that our representatives in congress and the senate get better benefits then our military. Thank you all for all that you do.
