• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

pretty tight ...

No, you definitely would not want to hit any turbulence. The rules they have for performing a show are strict and if the prevailing weather conditions do not conform to the rules, they either change the performance or cancel the show. They do fly a super tight formation. The leader is in charge, he makes all the decisions, all other eyes stay on the leader. If the leader makes a mistake, everyone suffers the consequences.
 
yeah the old prop job lawn mower had to be moved to the shed. note its a 2 stall garage so my car is in the other stall.

Looks like your car is a bit underpowered. A big Carrier like car like that needs more omphh than a normal car.

A few years back the whole formation went into the ground. Leader must have goofed up.

Nope, that was not the Blue Angels. That was the 1982 USAF Thunderbird team as they were practicing before the beginning of their show season. A mechanical problem with the leaders T-38 resulted in him not pulling out of a dive, the rest of the group followed him into the ground. At this point, the Thunderbirds skipped the 1982 season and started the 1983 season in the F-16
