great for all ages December 14, 1999

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.
Excellent October 10, 1999

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.
A truly GREAT aviation documentary! January 31, 1999

This was one of the best documentaries that I've ever seen on the Blues. While other videos only concentrate on the flying scenes (don't worry, this has PLENTY of them) this video shows what the WHOLE team goes through to make the show work. Everything is covered, from the pilots, to ops and the techs who keep the planes in the air.So many people get on planes every day and watch planes fly... Yet they don't think about what it takes to keep those planes in the air! As a aviation professional, I enjoyed seeing credit go to the the men and women who keep the Blue Jets flying!
An outstanding, in-depth look at America's premier pilots. April 9, 1999

This video does an outstanding job of showing you what it is like to BE a Blue Angel - whether you are a Blue Angel pilot or ground crew. It is a must see for anyone interested in military demonstration teams.
Working together for excellence March 15, 2000

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.
