Themed 50 Years of Women in Naval Aviation, the 2023 NAS Pensacola Blue Angels Homecoming Airshow is designed to honor and recognize the significant contributions women have made to naval aviation since the enactment of the Women’s Armed Services Integration Act, which removed restrictions previously prohibiting women from serving in combat-related roles and ultimately opened the door for women to pursue careers as Naval Aviators. The first class of female Naval Aviators began training in 1973 at NAS Pensacola. The 2023 NAS Pensacola Blue Angels Homecoming Air Show is one of Pensacola’s largest events, attracting more than 220,000 spectators during the two-day event.
