NICE pictures! Thanks for posting them. I grew up in the Bay Area (Woodside), and your pic's brought back some great memories.
I remember when the Angels were in Phantoms, then the A-4's, and now th Hornets. I never thought the A-4's were all that spectacular, but the Phantom...THERE's a crowd pleasing machine! Big, heavy, loud and smokey! Crowds loved 'em. I loved them so much I worked on them for 10 years, until the Corps tranistioned entirely out of them. I could have gone to the Hornets, too, but I had a family, and didn't want to spend 8-10 months a year asea.
The Hornets are great machines for the Angels, too, But they're just not Phantoms, you know? I even saw the Angels fly through Hangar 1 over at Moffet when I was 9 or 10. Diamond formation. Tight, but hey, they're the Blue Angels!
I was stationed in MCAS Yuma for much of my time in, and I would ride my motorcycle over to El Centro to watch the angels practise on weekends. Good times!
Anywho, thanks again!

Blanston,
Nice pics. They bring back memories for me also.
I remember watching the Angels from Crissy Field on the Presidio when I was stationed there in the '80s (Wonderful duty!). Feinstien was the mayor and there was a big hulabaloo about them practicing over the city. People were thinking (according to the Chronicle) that the city was being invaded.
Miss the Bay Area.

I was wondering the same thing. What do you use to create these formations?

Thanks to all for the kind words, I actually used P3D4 with orbx NorCal scenery and AiTrackerX to setup the formations. I never got to see the Angels Phantom and could not find a repaint for my SWS version so that’s why it’s missing.

I do find it easy to use, great for stills, the formation stutters to much for video's though, Dave B recommended it to me.

I use AirTraffic-FX, but to my disappointment it will not load rotorcraft. As I just started flying choppers I never noticed nor needed it to do that before.
I checked out the AiTrackerX page but found no info on rotorcraft. Can formations be made using rotorcraft?
Thanks,
Joe
