The Mirror Masters

Blue Angel #5, Lt. Cmdr. Scott Goossens, and Blue Angel #6, Lt. Cmdr. Ryan Chamberlain, lock into the legendary opposing‑solo mirror pass, one upright, one inverted, both flying so close you could measure the distance in inches instead of feet.

 

Their blue‑and‑gold Hornets slice through the Cocoa Beach sky with the kind of precision that makes the crowd forget to breathe. It’s a maneuver that looks impossible until you remember these two pilots spend their entire season proving that “impossible” is just another word for “watch this.” Shot at the 2026 Cocoa Beach Air Show, this moment captures the raw trust, discipline, and nerve that define the Blue Angels’ solo team.
