Blue Angels Begin Training For Return To Season Schedule

Practice Flights Being Conducted In Pensacola, FL

The U.S. Navy Flight Demonstration Squadron, the Blue Angels, have started training flights in preparation to resume the team's Pensacola practice and air show season schedules, the team announced Thursday.

The team flew its first training flight in a "Big V" formation, with five aircraft over downtown Pensacola and Pensacola Beach, Florida, June 16.

The 0930 (local time) training flight was visible to the general public. The formation flew over Perdido Key toward Pensacola Beach, then over Palafox Street in downtown Pensacola, from South to North, then North to South before returning to Forrest Sherman Field at Naval Air Station Pensacola.

The mission of the Blue Angels is to showcase the pride and professionalism of the United States Navy and Marine Corps by inspiring a culture of excellence and service to country through flight demonstrations and community outreach.
