Went to see the Blue Angles, during Fleet Week in San Francisco California just over a week ago, for the I don't know what time, must be about 20th by now. Never disappointing. From our vantage point behind the St. Francis Yacht Club we saw a fantastic show. The F18s were literally right overhead on some maneuvers. Close enough that we could see the pilots helmet as you can see from this picture taken from the ground with a Canon Digital Rebel and a 75-300 Zoom lens, and NOT fully zoomed in!!! If you have an opportunity to see this show, give it a go, it doesn't disappoint. Just don't sit 1/4 mile back and expect something like this. You might get lucky, but the odds are against.
