The world famous Blue Angels don’t get to Colorado often, but they’ll be in our state this summer, and better yet, they’re taking someone for a ride!
The Navy’s Blue Angels Flight Demonstration Squadron, a flight showcase team known for tight formation flying in fighter jets, will be visiting the Pikes Peak Regional Airshow on Aug. 17-18 in Colorado Springs.
The Blue Angels’ Key Influencer program offers area residents who positively impact local youth the chance to take to the skies in one of their Boeing F/A-18 Super Hornets.
A “key influencer” is defined as a person who helps “shape attitudes and opinions” of young people in their communities, including teachers, coaches, school board members and group leaders, according to airshow officials.
