Stay away from those guys. I hear they carry disease and have a questionable moral code.

hey, I resemble that remark...

GO AIR FORCE AND GO VOLS!!!!!!!!!

Really a great photo. Reminded me of this video of the Seals. After they'd all landed, Paul Bain jumped from the same plane and landed without a parachute. This video doesn't show that part. Probably out of respect for the Seals.

This is from 2016. About two months before we lost Angel 6 in Smyrna.

82-83, that's weird. I see 5 aircraft, but 6 smoke trails. Is one bird hidden by another?

Tarheel, that's weird. In the screen capture, the SEALs are looking off the tailgate at a stadium that is clearly not Neyland (big parking lots, all around it), but the video is of Neyland. I don't know the nuts and bolts of how Youtube works, but shouldn't the photo match the video?

Heck, you're right about that. I hadn't noticed. Maybe they did it in multiple stadiums and got it mixed up or edited for some reason. Good catch.

#5 is a little hard to see but it’s there, can just see the tail.

The city of Smyrna just completed construction of a memorial in honor of Capt. Jeff Kuss, the pilot of Angel 6.
Smyrna dedicates memorial to Blue Angels Capt. Jeff Kuss

Was this the same wing that dropped a humvee in someone's backyard?

I saw that story and wondered if homeowners insurance would pay if the hummer landed in someones bedroom. Anybody on here in the insurance biz?

Have you seen the Memorial in Smyrna yet? It is heart-wrenchingly beautiful and dignified. As befits.

No, but I will make time to go next time I am in Nashburg.

I'm sure that rebuild would be taken care of by the US Government.
