Back in blue and gold.

The U.S. Navy Flight Demonstration Squadron, the Blue Angels, pilots fly in a delta formation during a training flight. While the U.S. Navy cancelled the remaining 2013 Blue Angels performances, the squadron maintained minimum safe flying levels and proficiency flight operations since April. This month, the Department of Defense approved funding for the Blue Angels’ full 2014 air show season.
