Since this weekend is Blue Angels Homecoming, I thought I might share a couple photos given to me by the late Trader Jon.

Well, I really like those pics. Made me think how cool a hertage flight would be. Since the Blues were just in Houston, and Waltrip's bearcat is painted as a blue. That would have been awesome! 8)

A Blue Angels Heritage flight would be rather cool. Unfortunately, I don't think there is a flying example of every model flown. It would be Uber Cool!!!!

Go to ASB.TV The Horsemen did a Blue Angels Heritage flight with Bearcats and The Blue Angels. Granted the Bearcats were not in Blue Angels livery but cool none the less.

Great video of it with a former Blue Angels pilot.
