Just saw The Blue Angels and Thunderbirds do a flyover here near what used to be NAS Atlanta, Dobbins AFB, and Lockheed.
Thought it was worth posting, and thanks to our healthcare workers, and first responders.

I miss the Pease AFB airshows, they had the Blue Angels last time I was there. One of my favorite passes was when one plane went as low and as slow as possible, basically hopping along nose up, the crowd is gawking at this. A second plane flies by at just under the speed of sound and you see the entire crowd nearly fall over like blades of grass before a leafblower.

They had them at Otis AFB on Cape Cod, too.
One year we were on my Dad's boat nearby and saw a B-52 taking off right over our heads.
Then a few years back, when Obama was in office, we saw Air Force One coming in for a landing, then a couple weeks later, saw it leaving, with the C17s
with Secret Service, vehicles, etc taking off afterwards.

They did a flyover today in Baltimore and Washington, D. C. today, as well. Their path was too far to the south of where I am, but I was outside hoping to catch a glimpse, or maybe just a little jet engine roar. The weather today is picture perfect, so even though I didn't see the flyover, it was well worth getting outdoors for ANY reason!
