Salinas Airshow 的压轴戏自然是Blue Angels的Fat Albert C130和F/A-18的飞行表演。
以往在旧金山看的舰队周表演都是没有地面展示部分,所有飞机从较远的旧金山国际机场起飞,在渔人码头上空表演后返回。这次的表演则能看到所有参演战机表演前都停放在停机坪上,例行检查,冷开车,滑行,起飞的全过程都在观众面前完成。6架F/A-18的引擎从停车状态的宁静到完全启动后的轰鸣给观众听觉上带来极大的震撼。
首先是名字叫Fat Albert的Blue Angels专用C-130T起飞并做几个通场表演,并在最后展示它超强的短距离降落能力。
F/A-18的表演以1,2,3,4号四机菱形编队起飞开始,接着5,6号两架Solo起飞。
所有表演项目如下:
Fat Albert (C-130) – high performance takeoff
Fat Albert - Parade Pass (Photo Pass. The plane banks around the front of the crowd)
Fat Albert - Flat Pass
Fat Albert - Head on Pass
Fat Albert - Short-Field Assault Landing
FA-18 Engine Start-Up and Taxi Out
Diamond Take-off (Either a low transition with turn, loop on takeoff, a half-Cuban 8 takeoff, or a Half Squirrel Cage)
Solos Take-off (Blue Angel #5: Dirty Roll on Take-Off; Blue Angel #6: Low Transition pitch up)
Diamond 360: Aircraft 1, 2, 3 and 4 are in their signature 18" wingtip-to-canopy diamond formation.
Opposing Knife-Edge Pass
Diamond Roll: The whole diamond formation rolls as a single entity.
Opposing Inverted to Inverted Rolls
Diamond Aileron Roll: All 4 diamond jets perform simultaneous aileron rolls.
