Blue Angels Airshow 2006: MORE HEAVY METAL!

[BLUTundGermany]

My Boy Is In The Blue Angels! KICK ASS CHRIS!

[DeepAbyssX1]

I love the beginning with the F-4 Phantom, A-10, F-86 Sabre(lead aircraft), and I think F-15 if I am wrong correct me then

[joshua0366]

@deepabyssx1 , omg me too that's awesome, A-10 is my favorite plane, be cooler if they had like an F-22 or something though

[442462]

Thank you very much indeed, but I hope you won't mind a comment: I would rather listen to the engines than the dubbed in music.

[jibety66]

this video makes me feel good inside

[stonemadandy]

What a load of Bollocks

Get a grip you lot

[jaw1024]

even when they takeoff it's exciting

i have to see the blue angels live...

also sorry to hear about Belle, that's quite a good lifespan for a dog (i think)

[cracker1103]

i really really want to be a Blue Angel more than anything in the world!

[pegasus818]

I'm saddened to learn of the passing of Belle. I lost Brandy, my little princess on May 3, 2006.

[oskaramangue]

AMAZING !°!!!!

[wildstar1]

Thanks! Thank you so much for watching.:)

[oopunakea]

Hi,

Great video. I was touched by your tribute to Belle. We recently lost our angel, Sparky, too, so I can really understand how you feel. Thanks for sharing. -Mikey2

[wildstar1]

Hi, I'm so sorry for your loss as well. It's hard to lose a pet/family member under such tradgic circumstances. Thanks so much for the nice comment and for watching the vids.

Take care.:)

[WatchMe42]

very cool, i sure wish i was there =P

[wildstar1]

It was awesome! New video from the 2008 show posting now!

Thanks for watching.:)

[mejia85710]

Cool vid looked like a hell of a airshow

[wildstar1]

It was awesome, weather was perfect, of course the Blues are always awesome though. Thanks for watching my vid.:)

[mejia85710]

Dont know about you but I never wanna ontop of a plane.

[wildstar1]

lol I will say that I agree with you!

But it looks fun.:) Thanks for watching.

[xjl2212]

way cool

[wildstar1]

Thanks, thanks for watching.:)

[99draiwil]

was that an F-4 phantom at the beginning? some real old school metal!

[wildstar1]

lol, I guess I dated myself with the song choice.

Yes, I beleive that is a Phantom jet, an awesome jet for it's time.:)

Thanks for watching!

[GoNavy92]

what is the artist of this song?

[wildstar1]

Sammy Hagar. From the movie "Heavy Metal" soundtrack.:)

Thanks for watching!

[dm41323]

fat albert DOES use minture jets to take off .

[wildstar1]

Yes, they use JATO, (Jet Assisted Take-Off). It's a BIG airplane and they need the extra lift.:)

Thanks for watching!

[toddi1971]

It's RATO (rocket assisted take off)

[wildstar1]

Cool, I've always seen it refered to as JATO in the show programs, but rockets work for me as well.:)

[ninjabgone]

i think the blues look funny in yellow flight suits

[wildstar1]

You rarely get to see them in their "dress gold" uniforms. This was a special anniversary show.

Thanks for watching.:)

[ninjabgone]

actually i have seen them in yellow flight suits

[wildstar1]

Yeah, if you go to the shows on a regular basis you'll see them in gold more often. This was the first time I've seen them wearing it in several years.

Thanks again.:)

[wildstar1]

Not for me, but, whatever floats ya boat!HA

[blueangelarts]

we named our art studio after them

[wildstar1]

How dool! I'll have to check it out. I love photographing them. Getting all set to go to the show on the beach. Hope to have more video soon.

Thanks for watching my vid.:)

[wildstar1]

They don't do JATO anymore.:( Now, they did use it at this show, I just wasn't in a good spot to get it on film. Someone's head got in the way.lol

Thanks for watching.:)

[22inchstrong]

The Blue Angels performed the JATO assisted take off at the 2007 McConnell AFB Show. They only perform the JATO assisted take off at a select few air shows during their season. This could be a possible reason why you didn't see it ;) enjoy

[InLineRecordSource]

I made a tribute video for LT Kevin Davis as well. please look at my memorial montage for him in my video section and leave a comment if you choose. thank you

[justmejulia]

amazing!!

[wildstar1]

Thanks!

I appreciate you watching.:)

[paterwww]

From Spain I would say that Blue Angels are the best pilot of the World. My congratulations for them. Ramon V.

[wildstar1]

Thanks, I appreciate the nice comment, and, the Blues would as well I'm sure.:)

Thanks for watching.

[cleankid2]

I went to the one in 2007 and it was cool. but some of the stuff is the same. Great vid. it seems like you had a great angle. I feel bad for belle. she lived a long time thou.

[KokSquad]

i wanna be a blue angel one day

[wildstar1]

You go for it! I wish you success. The Blues are definitely role models.

Thanks for watching.:)

[Sconiers]

They come to the Gary / Chicago Airport every year and are a part of a 10 million dollar air show that can be seen and heard for 30 miles in all directions!!!

They are th highlight of the summer!

[wildstar1]

I bet they are! Wow, I'd love to see that show in person. Maybe, if I ever get out that way, I will.:) We're looking forward toi the big show on the beach next month here in P'cola. I'll try to get some new video of them if we're able to go.

[tenagewastland]

man this metal is so fucking heavy it makes lamb of god seem like christan bible groups

[wildstar1]

I don't think Sammy would appreciate that.

Oh! Learn to spell, you won't look so stupid the next time you post a comment.:)

[dontask2015]

you should hear my brother's band

[wildstar1]

I'd love to! Send me a vid, or link to one.:)

[sanglot]

lol @ heavy metal

[wildstar1]

The aircraft seen here are VERY HEAVY because they're mostly constructed of metal, and, the song in the video is called "Heavy Metal". DUH!!!!

[CircaSkater88]

damn i would have never guessed that airplanes were made of metal. and what a little pussy band naming there song heavy metal. they suck ass i swear to god i think that even guns and roses are better than them.

[taunusrunner]

heavy metal???

[wildstar1]

Yes.

[crazymetallian]

[wildstar1]

Yes they do. Thanks so much for watching!:)

[Helikopter99]

Very good video.

[wildstar1]

Thanks!

[figment98]

Who's in NJROTC and looks forward to meetin the Angels every year!?!

[wildstar1]

Well, I look forward to seeing the Blues each year, but, I'm too old for NJROTC. If I were 20 years younger though!:)

Thanks for watching.

[Delollis5]

the F-18 Hornets mostly always take the show, but i still love the Thunderbolt II

[wildstar1]

I love them all!

Thanks for watching.:)

[musickid1090]

If I'm right, the first four in formation was an old Sabre at the lead, an F-4E Phantom II at the left wing, an F-15 Eagle at the Right wing, and an A-10 Thunderbolt II.

[wildstar1]

Absolutely correct! They are all awesome aircraft. I love the A10, they always put on a spectacular performance, as does the Sabre jet.

Thanks for watching.:)

[wildstar1]

Thanks for the nice words, and yes, to answer your ?, Fat Albert is indeed a C-130 Hercules. They always put on a perfect show!

Thanks for watching too.:)

[jugg27]

I actually got a chance to met the Blue Angels at this show, It was a beautiful weekend.

[wildstar1]

How cool! I hope we can hang out long enough after the show next year to get a few autographs on the show program. Of course next year there'll be a new Blue Angels team. BTW, thanks for subscribing!:)

I am going to try to go to the beach show this year. I hope to get more video soon.

[Bahamut666X666]

First off, May Belle Rest In Peace. Second, perfect video. Third, is Fat Albert a C-130 Hercules? Looked like a C-130 Hercules.

[arthur2647]

what did they say?

[jugg27]

Well I am in CAP so we mostly talked about that but I only took a picture with them the plane and talked for like two minutes. At the MicGuire airshow I will have a chance to meet the Thunderbirds.

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it.:)

I can't wait until the next show. Fat Albert's always a favorite.

[Chopperdevil1775]

I was out there with ya, great few days of flyin.

[wildstar1]

It was a great show! Weather was perfect, can't wait for the next one, love the Blues.

Thanks for watching!:)

[zkksslew]

The photography is awesome and of course the Blue Angels are always Great.

[mortdk]

No, a C-130 Hercules

[Zuckergast]

How stupid of me, I see now, the C-47 is a much older design... :)

[wildstar1]

Hi, yes Fat Albert is a C-130 Hercules.

I will have the whole performance posted later.

Thanks for watching!:)

[Zuckergast]

You´ve got some awesome shots of the jets! I was also very impressed by the big transport aircraft - was it a C-47?

[wildstar1]

Hi! Sorry it took me so long to reply. The large transport is a C-130. Known as "Fat Albert", they're the Blue Angels support team. I'll have the whole performance posted soon!

Take care.:)

[wildstar1]

Hi, well I replied to this but it hasn't shown up.:(

I'm glad you liked the video!

The big one is a C-130 cargo plane, the Blues support team.

[Zuckergast]

But it did show up here! :) No problem, sometimes it takes I while, so don´t worry to soon.

[Zuckergast]

But it did show up here! :) No Problem, sometimes it takes some time, so don´t worry too soon.

[wildstar1]

Finally, it posted!lol I don't know why the comments are so slow to post sometimes. Maybe large volume of traffic? :)

I hope you are well!

[SteelyDoctorWu]

I have had an opportunity to salute these guys when I was in the Navy,not the same ones of course,that was 21 years ago.They got out of this long black car with their winter sweaters on,in the middle of summer.This was a practice run and they did some stuff that I am sure they shouldn't have.I think if I stood on a ladder and reached up I could have rubbed the belly of their aircraft.This was great footage and the music was super.Thanks for not using the danger zone theme from top gun.

[wildstar1]

They are truely spectacular! I love the fighter jets, I had an opportunity to see the USAF Thunderbirds and the Blues fly together back in '97' at the 50th anniversary show at Eglin, AFB. It was great! Unfortunately, I didn't have a video camera and, I lost the roll of film I shot with a still camera.lol Oh well.

Wow, go Navy, what did you do while serving? My dad was Airforce. We have friends and relatives still serving.

Thanks for watching!:)

[SteelyDoctorWu]

Logistics.I sat at desk and wrote computer programs,very boring,but that's what they wanted me to do.Back then programming was a bit more complicated,we didn't have Windows to help us out,everything had to be done the hard way.

[dookielad2]

woot u showed two awsome jets A-10 Warthog and what looked like two F-17s ! awsome

[wildstar1]

They're all awesome aircraft. Yes, there was an A-10, F-86 Sabre jet, and the newer FA-18 Super Hornet you see flying together in the "Heritage Flight" formation. Showing 4 generations of fighters.

The Blues fly the FA-18 Super Hornet.

Thanks for watching!

[Airshowfan2]

The Blue Angels do not fly the Super Hornet, they fly the old model, the A/B models

[wildstar1]

Yes, you are correct. I was referring to the one seen at the beginning of the video, during the "Heritage Flight". It was introduced as a Super Hornet.

The Blues fly regular F-18C/Bs during their performances. Sorry, guess I should've been more specific. I'll have more video from the show soon featuring more aircraft.

Thanks for watching:)

[Shaka666]

Thats not an FA-18 Super Hornet. Thats the F-15 Eagle...Just to clarify.

[wildstar1]

Hi! The jet in the "Heritage Flight" at the very beginning may be an Eagle, but, the one seen later demonstrating the "push/pull" maneuver is a Super Hornet. I have the full performance, posting it ASAP. Check it out!:)

Thanks for watching.

[Shaka666]

Yeah man i agree with you there just wanted to clarify to the other comment..the jet in the heritage flight is an F-15 Eagle...Good movie

[wildstar1]

Thanks for the ID. We were late getting there and missed the first of it, therefore, I missed the intro to this performance and the program was'nt specific either. It was a great show! I'm trying to upload the super hornet's performance now.

Thanks again!:)
