    It was skipped last year, but is back in town this year. I'll go and check the air display out this weekend, but in the meantime, two Blue Angels F-18 Super Hornets just went noisily past my place at a low altitude.

    Apparently, for you aircraft buffs, the Blue Angels have upgraded from the original F-18 to the F-18 Super Hornet this year.

    The pilots always remind me of Thunderbirds puppets.
    Do the ground crew still do all that precision marching ******** as they get the planes ready to fly? It looks ridiculous, typically yank.
