2008 Blue Angels Homecoming
NAS Pensacola
Pensacola, Florida
Thursday November 13, 2008

IN THIS VIDEO, watch as Bob Carlton flies his Salto Sailplane in a performance over NAS Pensacola. It should be noted that Bob's sailplane is no ordinary sailplane - it has a small jet engine mounted on top of the fuselage, enabling Bob to self-launch the Salto sailplane for his performance and double the length of the performance.

Like what you've seen? Well, if you are interested in purchasing DVDs of specific aircraft and/or of airshows, interested in anything and everything related to airshows (where the jet teams will show up, all airshow performers, airshow reports from airshows I have attended, previews of airshows I will be attending, etc.), a much more easier to navigate "version" of all of my videos, and/or everything there is related to aviation - including spotting guides to my favorite airports and military bases and aircraft factfiles, please take time to check out Steve's Airshow World at http://www.stevesairshow.com .
