Had to be 87. The Blues were still in the A-4 in 86. Gil Rud handled the transistion to the Hornet. That is the one.

must have been ... I've got some great shots ... was about 50 feet back from the runway when the number 5 or 6 plane made a hard right bank around a hangar to my left and laid on the throttles about 30 feet off the ground ... I remember being astounded when the plane silently went by ... and then the roar ... freaky the first time you experience it ... went back to the same spot the next day (Sunday) and experienced it again ... too cool ...

I don't remember if the Thunderbirds were the next year or not ... but I saw the angels again ... beautiful photos ... also shot a nice F-4 from Happy Hooligans I think it was ...

how's your -16 ride coming? ... did that foot heal?
