It was one great air show – had VIP tickets on Thursday & it went from 9:30 am till after 7:00 pm, first time I ever saw a night air show. Blue Angel are going to have a special air show sometime in May 2011 to celibate 100th anniversary of Naval Aviation. Kind of figured you wear a member of Blue Angels at some time. Hope things work out with the wife. You know we need to be talking on RVAH/NAVY about having a reunion on the 100th anniversary. Send me your personal e-mail – Later Flynn RVAH-7
Hey thanks for getting back to me, reunion was great just wish they have one next year which is the 100th anniversary of Naval Aviation. I’ll also be in Pensacola Nov 8 to 13 staying at Crowne Plaza, have my VIP tickets for Thursday (11-11) Blue Angle air show. Plan on being over at air museum all day Wednesday (11-10). Hey call over to Crowne when you get in & let get together and talk about old times. What’s the blue angels alumni association?
I was in Rvah-7 from Sept 1966 to Sept 1969; AMS-2 was airframe night supervisor on med cruse and part of west pack. Also was QC & checker on nights, had a bunch of great guys working with me and was one of those times which I’ll never forget. Made 1-1/2 west packs & one med on three different boats. RVAH/NAVY is one great organization for finding old shipmates – hope to see you in Pensacola.
