I think there will be folks here who will appreciate this awesome photography. Hope this isn't old news. Apologies if it is. First time I've seen this though. Phenomenal!

wow the sneak passes were awesome! By the way scarface from pendleton looked pretty good but if the Warriors(HML\A 167) from New River were there they would have looked better. just a former warrior talking.

Those sneak pass shots are incredible!!! Ive never seen anything like that captured, with the ripple affect and the boats around it, simply amazing. Great photos!

Those pictures are amazing. The rooster tail kicked up by the sneak pass is cool as hell.

Amazing how fast 700mph.

I was stationed in Alameda from 90-93 and have some fond memories of fleet week in SF.

We had a great view of the Angels from the ship. Not to mention being able to find excuses
to watch the Angels practice/find their landmarks in the days preceeding the show.

After I got out I went to the Miramar airshow (both as NAS amd MCAS) almost religiously.
I lived very near the base and it was impossible to not know that the Angels were in
town....We would get a couple of sneak passes each time at our house. Good times!

WOW.... great pics, thanks!

I have seen the 'Blues' perform a few times, more amazed each time I see the show. While viewing these pics I could almost feel the rumble of those engines in my gut, or maybe it was just the black bean soup I had for diner.

I have heard stories from some of my Navy buddies about Fleetweek, those pics shines some light on how awesome it is.

I am a participant at the Reading Airshow, been so for about the past 11 years. One of my fondest memories was when a F4F Wildcat, F6F Hellcat, and a F4U Corsair were in the "Missing Man" formation with some of the Blues in honor of our fallen pilots, when the F4U peeled off I had to choke down a few tears.
Excellent pictures, thanks for posting the link!

You all are welcome, glad you enjoyed those as much as I did. Bernard Zee is the man responsible. I'm just lucky I stumbled across the web site.
