Guest guest Posted October 15, 2005 Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 Eileen, I grew up near Miramar Naval Air Station in San Diego watching the Blue Angels I believe. Even lived across the street from a pilot. Used to watch him fly overhead and wag his wings at us. Now I live near AFB and the air show is this weekend and it brings back all the memories of growing up and listening to sonic booms, like what I used to hear as a kid. Sandy in CA -------------- Original message -------------- I LOVE airshows. Spent every Memorial day with my brothers and father at airshows, watching the Thunderbirds or the Blue ANgels. I get such a thrill out of them. Eileen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 I was told they still do sonic booms but not after 10 pm anymore. But even at teh air show I didn't hear a one. Bummer! Sandy -------------- Original message -------------- Boy can I relate. I am near McGuire AFB and Lakehurst Naval Base (where the Hindenburg blew up). My ex husband was a private pilot. I also remember the sonic booms. I used to run out of the house and look up. :-) What ever happened to those Eileen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
