The Blue Angels True Story: 15 Coolest Facts Amazon's Doc Leaves Out About The U.S. Navy Squadron
Story by Abigail Stevens • 1w •


The Blue Angels are the second-oldest flight demonstration team in the world, formed after a French team.

The smoke trails from the Blue Angels' planes aid safety, produced with environmentally-friendly oil.

The new Super Hornet became the official aircraft for the Blue Angels' demonstrations in 2021.

Amazon's documentary The Blue Angels showcases stunning footage of the aerial stunts accomplished by the U.S. Army's most talented pilots but leaves out many interesting facts. The Blue Angels are a team of six skilled pilots who go through years of training and endure incredible physical stress to become a part of the U.S. Navy's aerial demonstration team. Amazon's new documentary is being screened in IMAX theaters to give audiences the best experience of the sky-high filming.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
