Wait for it...
Unsuspecting bystanders didn't know the Blue Angels were doing an airshow... and didn't count how many planes were on the team either, until......
http://youtu.be/xpQgDuyaAHw :D I've been caught off guard by the Blue Angels and the Snowbirds before almost like this (in fact most recently - just a week and a half ago) and it's always a cool thing :yep: |
:haha: A similar thing happened at an airshow I was at, since the area behind us was all tall houses no-one could see the Hawker Hunter until she screamed overhead and out to sea. The announcer came on with a wry comment of "I thought I'd keep quiet about that one, give you all a surprise."

Great when that happens...been buzzed almost regularly at air shows for years :yeah:
|
I have been buzzed at airshows too, but it wasn't from airplanes.:D

Meanwhile at Waddington:

Reminds me of a roadtrip through New york once.
Going through Index, NY I think, I thought I was coming upto a T intersection, I would be crossing the T. No stop signs or anything. But there was an sign that said "Low flying Aircraft". My buddy and I were confused, as we looked around we couldnt see an airport. As we got closer, we realized the "road" didnt actually intersect, it was a runway, separated by about 12" of gravel from the road. Way down the other end were some hangers. |
Had an unexpected fly past of two Spitfires this afternoon. Nice.

With the Reno disaster (photo just before impact) and the single crash one town over at nearby Travis AFB-one month ago (Privateer saw it in person) I prefer not to wait for it. I still recollect this gem http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vIRYhoC2gZg at Rammstein AFB...perhaps stricter regulation is in order. http://latimesphoto.files.wordpress....show0917-8.jpg
