Summary: The best
Comment: Quite possibly the best Blue Angels documentary out there. Does a great job showing how hard all the pilots and support crew work behind the scenes to get every show in the air. This will definitely leave you with a much better appreciation of exactly what goes on during an air show.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Seen it too many times to count
Comment: What realy makes this documentary is the Blues team for that year. Some of the greatest pilots with the humblest and greatest attitudes. On top of that the whole Blues program is an outstanding display of real concern for safety and a formidable example of team work. I love planes, but these guys made this real special. I was so impressed with them that I bought lunch and showed it to my leadership staff at work.

Summary: Working together for excellence
Comment: After seeing this video, I came to realize how important communication is. When you are flying within 36 inches of each other, it is a must. I also saw how much saying I was wrong and I will do better the next time is critical to staying alive. These men are men of excellence and the flying was awesome and the oneness exhibited was awe inspiring.

Summary: great for all ages
Comment: My 2 year-old and I have watched this together at least 100 times, and we love it. I'm a pilot; he loves airplanes. As a former coxswain on the US Rowing Team, I was struck how much the emphasis on teamwork and the training routines had in common with the rowing community. Watching this video made me want to give it to friends training for the 2000 Olympics, it reminds me so much of them. I recommended it to coworkers. The video and its world tour captures the optimistic feeling of universal brotherhood that reigned immediately following the end of the Cold War. You'll tap your feet to the music. The flying sequences are beautiful. You come away from this with boundless admiration for the pilots, the maintenance crews, the families, the airplanes and the whole program. For anyone associated with naval aviation especially, this video would be an endless daydream of heaven.

Summary: Excellent
Comment: This video allows you to get a never-before seen inside look into the selection process and show-life of the "Blue Angels"flight demonstration team; and it makes me proud to have come from a "Navy" family.
