was at blue angels this year in sf. at the last second one of the planes made a hard turn and B lined it right for me at about 100 feet (it seemed like it) over. literally almost evacuated my lunch...took me a good 5 minutes to get my heart rate down. the sheer power of the sonic boom almost threw me to the ground. pure awesome.
anyone else make it out there this year (meaning 2010, sorry)?
I can NOT imagine having that one fly over you head just a few feet. insane.

Great find. Allow me to return the favor (slightly different but just as kewl). 
P.S. Before anyone bags on the F4, please keep in mind that I'm a Phantom Phanatic. Long live the Spook!

With the exception of the Century Series, the F-4 is my fav old school jet fighter.
We attended the transitional ceremony when Oregon ANG got rid of their F-4s ...and got f-16s.
There wasn't a dry eye in the crowd.

So who saw those 2 f16's buzz the entire city of San Jose during summer I think it was? Not sure if they were f'16s either i was at work and missed it sadly. People were *****in and moanin because the fighters were flying too low and too close to the city. Like really how can you get mad at that it's one of the sexiest things that can happen. Buncha winers.
Yeah, You've Probably Never Heard Of Me.
