I will be seeing the T-Birds tomorrow, but I think my allegiance will always remain with the Blues!

I have never seent he T-Birds either, but being a Marine I am forever faithful to the Angels.  Hell I have spent thousands on plane tickets to go see them in various parts of the country.   Grin

After seeing the T-Birds today, I have to say I am still loyal to the Blues.  I guess the biggest put off to me and the missus was the 30 minute intermission between the last act and the Birds, then it took another 30 minutes for start up, introduction, and taxi out before the Birds were ready to fly.  We thought the announcer would never quit talking. 

It looked like the Birds had ground crews on the runway doing some final prep on the birds before they could launch.  The Blues have never done that, at least the shows I have seen.  They start up, taxi out, and are off the ground.

That's not unlucky Grin. The Best we have here  is an f-5 is some wannabe formation flying over at 400mph and doing a barrel roll Roll Eyes Sad Cry.

But I love the blue angel pics Cool
 

Most people think that flying a plane is dangerous, except pilots because they know how easy it is.
Arguing with a pilot is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a while you begin to think the pig likes it.
