RobertVA Certificates/Ratings/Crew Stations: 1. "RE: Salinas!" 09-22-04, 03:08z  Double check on that Blue Angels performance. I've recently read reports that the navy has canceled some appearances so the pilots and support crew can go back to Florida and return their homes and HQ to order.

DHamblin Certificates/Ratings/Crew Stations: 2. "RE: Salinas!" 09-22-04, 11:29z  Oceana and Nantucket Island are the only two confirmed cancels so far; but depending on events others could be. My uncle lives in Pensacola (retired navy), he says its a mess. I understand the Blue's maintenance hangar roof collapsed. That doesn't sound promising.

Ben_Chiu Certificates/Ratings/Crew Stations: 3. "RE: Salinas!" 09-24-04, 18:23z  Hi Guys! I just confirmed with one of the Salinas coordinators that the Blues will be there next weekend. They're holding a tribute to a the founder of the Blue Angels, Butch Voris, so I'm told that they "almost have to show up no matter what." Whew! See you there!

Patty_Wagstaff Certificates/Ratings/Crew Stations: 4. "RE: Salinas!" 09-26-04, 14:52z  Ben, I've heard through airshow rumours that the Blues are going to cancel Salinas - but it should be a good show even without them. Apparently all of their homes are damaged or destroyed and families displaced...but we'll see what happens. Patty Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Ben_Chiu Certificates/Ratings/Crew Stations: 5. "RE: Salinas!" 09-26-04, 18:24z  Thanks for the update, Patty. Agreed, it'll still be a great show without the Blues, but we'll miss 'em. Best! Ben Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Ben_Chiu Certificates/Ratings/Crew Stations: 6. "RE: Salinas!" 10-06-04, 05:20z  My apologies for getting back to this late. The Blues did show up. Everyone flew on Saturday, but the low ceiling cut the show short on Sunday. Ben Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
