I was at that game. Scared the crap out of me. It was amazing how low those planes were. I’d love to know the clearance over the scoreboard.

They were doing construction on the other endzone and had several cranes up pretty high too.

The last thing I want is a woman pilot to fly that low over people. But everyone needs to feel cool and showcase their “high-T” by wanting more of this

I think both scenarios are fricking stupid. What’s even more stupid is the people defending this saying those who oppose have Low T. To me it feels those who lack discipline and pull of stunts like that feel the need to compensate for something. Just makes even more sense why it was a woman.

Blue Angels are a demonstration squadron whose sole purpose of existence is moral and recruitment.

This kind of stunt is exactly what their mission is.

I understand that but is the risk really worth the reward? Highly debatable. Also doesn’t mean a plane can’t malfunction. Do that shite over water, not over people. 27 blue angel pilots have crashed during air shows. It’s not impossible.

[ Cost the American tax payer $35-40 million per year. Enjoy your boner, you’re paying for it. Waste in my mind.

Also, incoming lawsuits from everyone suffering from the flying sand and debris from that unannounced shite show.]


Unsurprising opinion of the biggest douche on the internet.

How many of those were midair collisions and how many crashed because of altitude?

Why? Some of the most badass drag racers on the planet are women. If they can pilot a 12,000 hp top fuel dragster, why wouldnt they be able to fly a jet?

Its a US Navy F18 for the premier demonstration squadron in the world. Its probably the best maintained plane in existence.

Planes take off and land over neighborhoods thousands of times a day.

These are great pilots.

Some kids are going to remember that moment as the day they decided they wanted to be Navy.

The list of why this is a non issue is forever long. Everyone on that beach was in far more danger getting there than they ever were with the plane overhead.

from what I gathered, 3 of those crashes were collisions. Majority were mechanical or pilot errors.

I mean, driving a car in a straight line for a quarter mile probably shouldn’t be compared to being a fricking Blue Angel
