A4s Forever. BB

The best Blue Angel show of all time.  A-4's.   Here is a video of them from the '70's.  Bear Smith and Skip Umsted are the last two guys walking towards the camera before they get to their planes. They both died later in aircraft accidents.  The crazy solo is Denny Sapp.  Best show for the spectators because it was close to show center.  Always in sight.  Tightest diamond formation ever.

There is a B-24 Liberator Museum where I had my retirement ceremony at the Veterans Museum in Balboa Park.

Good thing we got our piloting years in when we did, in the Military we are becoming obsolete, Will the Air Lines be next? I'm sure the folks running the Air Lines would like to get rid of pilots and their paychecks, and "pensions", oh I forgot they already did that. BB
