Give Florida 5 minutes to change its weather, cause now the sun is out with the tree leaves glistening from the rain!
Cold and supposed to snow here in Syracuse, NY. Hubby is sick. Glad we head home tomorrow afternoon. Hope to get a few hours in Sunday, drive all day Monday and get home Tuesday. I wanna go home, yea yea, I feel so broke up, I wanna go home.
I feel like we've been playing peek-a-boo for the last two days. Sun in; sun out!No patent on that. Here, if you don't like the weather, go next door!![]()
Knots is Nautical Miles Per Hour. A nautical mile is an even 2000 yards. Makes a heck of a lot more sense than the weird random number of feet in a statue mile.Mornin' all!
I haven't seen the US Navy Blue Angels since I was too young too remember or appreciate fully, but I've seen the US Air Force Thunderbirds a couple of times since then.
Same difference, right?
((poster grabs popcorn, runs off to find a comfortable and protected viewing position, knowing he may have stirred a pot or two))Knots is like Celsius to me... I have to convert in order to get a feel for it. 40 knots is 46 mph.

Having been stationed aboard a couple carriers, I have to agree. I have seen some really impressive airshows from the deck of a carrier. Live 500 pounders and the F-14 wall of water are very impressive. The wall of water was an F-14 in afterburner so close to the water it is throwing a "wall of water" behind it.Unless the air show is on the deck of a carrier?![]()

Try to imagine wearing shoes 2 sizes too small for almost a decade and a half...
Careful
I really enjoyed sitting on the flight line watching the small fighter taking off and landing.
Good grief, that was a long time ago, LOL. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the video.
Reminds me of the brown paper towels we had it the Navy.
I am still waiting for sunrise here![]()

Something's coming !!
I hope this works well for everyone. Here is a video of the Blue Angles, the US Navy precision flying team. It is from the LA County Air Show in 2014. My first command was at Miramar Naval Airstation in San Diego. It was there that I was able to watch the Blue Angles for the first time. For the first year that I was attached to Navy Fighter Weapon School, I worked on the flight line eventually becoming a Plane Captain. I really enjoyed sitting on the flight line watching the small fighter taking off and landing. After that, I was assigned in the Rigger shop where I took care of the pilots personal protective equipment. Good grief, that was a long time ago, LOL. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the video.
