The pilot will likely be grounded for violating the "no energy toward the crowd rule".

So cool.
One of my friends dads was a marine pilot during Vietnam and he’s go low and fast over the Old Mission . My friend would time is...nuns and kids scattering. but so loud. Sometimes just a boom, other times a roar.

If I knew to expect such a low flyover by our Blue Angels,
I for one would LOVE to be there, see it, hear it and feel the power!

C,mon.
It was the best of their (the beachgoers) life and they know it.

” tossed around by the thrust from the jet’s engines”
No, it is the air disruption/displacement of the plane moving through dense air.

I remember well those Phantoms coming in as low and as slow as possible and dropping napalm close enough to us where I could feel the heat.

This is the solo sneak pass. A classic maneuver they have done for years.
Some blue hair got their panties in a bunch and posted this as some egregious event.
You wanna see a low pass? Come to El Centro for their winter practice.

Whiner.
From the article: "The Blue Angels have been doing the thrilling flyover at Pensacola Beach for 80 years, according to WEAR News — an annual tradition that draws in large crowds to the shoreline."

The pilot needs to be gone from the military by the end of the day. No need for further review. If he commited any crimes then he needs to be held accountable.

I was at Jax Beach for a Blue Angels flyover many years ago. They flew right down the beach about 100 ft out. It was great!
