Air Expo '09 to Feature Blue Angels May 23, 24


PATUXENT RIVER, Md.—Air Expo ’09 will take off here May 23 and 24, 2009 when Naval Air Station Patuxent River hosts the Navy’s Flight Demonstration Squadron, the Blue Angels, and the U.S. Army Golden Knights Parachute Team.

The Blue Angels will awe Air Expo ’09 spectators with the graceful, high-precision maneuvers of the four plane “diamond” and fast-paced high performance maneuvers of the solo pilots in the number five and six jets. All six jets will then perform together in the renowned delta formation.

The Golden Knights travel around the world, performing at air shows and special events. They also compete in national and international parachuting competitions. They have performed in all 50 states as well as 47 countries.

Also headlining the show will be an exciting line-up of military and civilian performers. Past will meet present and future in the static aircraft display area, which will include historic aircraft retired from service and current models and variants being used by war fighters today.
