This year’s shows takes place at Naval Air Station Jacksonville. Not only will spectators get to witness death-defying feats in the air. They’ll get to smell the jet fuel, watch take-offs and landings, and see those sleek Blue Angel jets lined up on the runway. Plus, there will be plenty of aircraft on display from the Navy, Army, Air Force, Coast Guard, and even NASA.
The biggest star of the show is the Blue Angels. For 30 minutes, spectators will ooh and aah as 7 fighter jets fly wing to wing, nose to tail. This flight demonstration features the best naval aviators around. You’ll hold your breath as the Blue Angels appear to be flying straight into one another, upside down. You’ll marvel at the choreographed flight formations they perform, just inches from one another. You’ll burst with patriotic pride as you witness America’s military might on display.
This air show is not just about the Blue Angels. There will be plenty of civilian performers on hand to perform loops, twirls, aeronautical acrobats, and even cut ribbons with their planes! Skydivers will jump from thousands of feet above. The Shockwave Jet Truck will speed down the runway. And the military will fly some of their fastest, meanest aircraft.
The best part about this air show – IT”S FREE! It doesn’t cost a penny to park and there is no admission fee. Any food or beverages you buy at the show benefits the Naval Air Station. What better way to spend a Saturday or Sunday in sunny Florida?
