    U.S. Navy Blue Angels - Fly over

    U.S. Navy Blue Angels

    Watching the Blue Angels fly over Pensacola is not just an air show it's a gut-rattling,…read morechest-thumping experience. These jets don't just fly by... they rip across the sky like thunder with purpose. One second the beach is calm, the next second six Boeing F/A‑18 Super Hornet scream overhead, afterburners roaring, and the whole crowd jumps like they just felt the heartbeat of the Navy itself. Sand shakes, people cheer, and you realize real quick this isn't some quiet museum piece this is living American aviation. For me, it meant even more. I want to give a proud salute to my daughter, Kindle , who served in the United States Navy. I watched her graduate boot camp and later graduate air traffic control school right here in Pensacola. She even volunteered helping with the Blue Angels show. Standing on that beach watching those jets carve up the sky while thinking about her service... that's the kind of moment that sticks with you. Loud. Proud. Real. A couple facts worth knowing while the jets are tearing holes in the sky: the Blue Angels were formed in 1946, making them one of the oldest flight demonstration teams in the world. Their home base is Naval Air Station Pensacola, and every year millions of people watch them perform across the country. These pilots fly just 18 inches apart in some formations at speeds pushing 700 mph. That's not choreography that's trust, skill, and nerves of steel. So here's my thanks: to the men and women of the United States Navy, thank you for your service. To Pensacola for being the home of naval aviation, thank you for the hospitality. And to the Blue Angels thanks for putting on one hell of a show. Jets screaming, beach shaking, crowds cheering... America in full throttle.

    Having gone to a number of air shows in the past, primarily to see the Thunderbirds in California,…read moreI was absolutely ecstatic when I experienced the Blue Angels practice in Pensacola. Attending this felt so much like attending an organized air show; the biggest difference being that it was free! From the show to the announcer to the concessions, it was all top notch! The worst part was getting to the base. Traffic was horrendous. It was just like going to a promoted event. Once on base though it was so pleasant. If you have the opportunity to check it out I highly recommend it!

First order of business: secure a seat in their giant-screen IMAX theater. That screen is massive one of those experiences where the engines roar, the jets scream across the sky, and you feel like you're strapped into the cockpit yourself. It's the kind of show that makes you sit up a little straighter in your seat and remember why naval aviation has always been the sharp end of the spear. Now the museum itself shipmate, this place is the real deal. Founded back in 1962 by Rear Admiral Magruder H. Tuttle, it started small with just a handful of aircraft. Today it's a full-on aviation hangar of history with more than 150 restored aircraft from the Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard spread across huge exhibit bays. My son and I spent hours there, and the best part for him was getting up close with the aircraft climbing into cockpits, checking out helicopters, and seeing the machines that once launched off carrier decks into the wild blue. Top highlights include the historic Curtiss NC-4 (the first aircraft to cross the Atlantic), Blue Angels jets hanging in formation overhead, and flight simulators that let you feel like you're launching off a carrier deck. Bottom line: if you've got even a drop of saltwater in your veins or a love for aviation, this place is squared away. Bring the kids, bring your curiosity, and be prepared to spend a full day walking through the proud history of naval aviation. From one proud American to another this museum is absolutely mission ready.

    So late in getting this review done. This stop was near the beginning of our 11K Road-Trip across…read moreAmerica. We were lucky enough to get here right before the Government Shut-Down, Such a Beautiful Coast-Line bursting with views of the ocean and wildlife. Plenty of spots to stop and take it in, have a picnic, use the restrooms, take a quick dip (we did). The Park itself has the standard entrance fee which assists in the upkeep of the area, we have an annual pass so if traveling to a lot of parks in one year (highly recommend). We utilized the campground which was well-maintained, restrooms/showers were good and we tented, but used the electricity availability for my CPAP. The Campground did not realize what a night of loud snoring they were spared. Ask our fellow campers in Death Valley a couple summers ago- talk about stares in the morning. We did a couple hikes around the area, saw Eagles and a variety of wildlife. We were lucky enough to visit the Fort when Ranger Chris was doing a presentation. He has a passion and the ability to share the knowledge he has of the time-period, the fort and the people who built it. I thought it was one of the best that we have ever attended. He challenged the group to further explore the fort and find different items of interest. When we had difficulty finding one particular spot, Ranger Chris took the time to walk us to it, explain the significance and then continued a tour of that side of the fort. My wife and I both agreed that this was one of the best interactions we have had in our National Parks experience. What really impressed me was Ranger Chris and the entire staff enthusiasm and dedication despite the furlough hanging over their heads. As we know shortly after the Government shut-down, we missed out on a lot of parks we planned on visiting, but the memory of this Gulf Island adventure eased some of the disappointment.

If you want to go through the structures you can walk through most of it. They tell you once your out there to down load the national park service app (NPS) to get a guided tour... But it's not too easy. You need a good signal and to be able to down load the maps before you go.. Because inside the bunkers you will lose signal. Plus I didn't find the app intuitive so standing out in the hot sun trying to figure it out was a pain. Plan ahead! Walk back in time with immersive history.
