Yes, the Blues DO fly that low in the "LOW" show...
No kidding. I'm up on this bluff at the intersection of Mt. St. Helens Place South & Cascadia Ave South - which I geotagged for all of you come Seafair 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015... and this is by sheer luck because the SITIA taxi was a total flunkie... so I end up with this vantage point for Friday's practice. In return, I get a good altitude reference of how low the Hornets go over Lake Washington plus I'm probably 100-200 feet closer to "The Sound of Freedom" :-).
This picture is just a small slice of what I got to experience. Trust me, it was a thrill.
Full size if you agree. Links to Seafair Friday Blue Angels and from the Seafair grandstands the Seafair Saturday Blue Angels for more viewing pleasure. Cheers!
