Hello All: This is an e-mail I just got last night. Is anyone interested?. I can bring 3 people. Please post up if you are interested and we could meet at a specified place. CERT members: For those of you who will be attending the Friday VIP NAS Air Show: You will be allowed access onto the Naval Air Station property through the base main entrance gate on Friday, April 28, 2006. There will still be a “Guest Access List” with the Security Personnel at the gate. Access will be granted to a vehicle as long as there is at least one credentialed CERT Member in the vehicle. This means you can bring as many as your vehicle will hold (no buses, please—Ha! Ha!) NAS Atlanta suggests arriving between 10:00-11:00 AM, and the practice show will begin around noon. The Blues will do their practice performance around 3:00 PM. Parking on base is very limited so the sooner you arrive the better the chance of finding somewhat convenient parking. Also, the vendors that the Navy has contracted with will be set up on Friday as well. There will be food/drink vendors and souvenir vendors. There should be between 5,000 and 10,000 persons on Friday. For anyone who is going to plan on attending on Saturday or Sunday expect around 50,000 each day. Thanks, Mark
that's awesome Mark! i grew up watching the Blue Angels and they're awesome! nothing like a sound of a fighter w/ its afterburners kicking in. whoever goes will have a good time! take some pics if ya can.
Yep, I will definitely take some good pics. I hope that someone else can go too. I sure do miss being in the AF when we could watch the Air Show really close up and even spend the night on the hangar as in Flugtag in Germany in 1981....That was a blast. We actually were allowed to spend the night underneath a P-3 Orion!!!. Mark
