No, the Blue Angels are not using the F-22 Raptor. They still use the tried and true F/A-18.

But... upon my driving around to try and get pics of my truck to show up BIRDMAN -- I quite literally ran into a ******* Blue Angels F/A-18 Hornet in a parking lot. :jawdrop:

So, clean Raptor. A camera. An F/A-18. PICTURES!

VERY COOL!
I was passing by Selfridge Air base near me the other day and was just thinking how cool it would be to get some pics by some jets.
Nice..

You live that close to Selfridge? That's like 30 minutes from where I grew up. I'll be home in Michigan in the next month or so to pick up the Mustang and get her to Florida. We GOTTA meet up!

My parents live in Memphis and have a house on the river in Marine City. I'm usually in the Marine City house enjoying the river and whoever I can find to come home with me over there. ;)
Amazing pics Swoop
Thanks man! I got stood up by my buddies and I don't have my tripod -- so I am ****** on taking night pics. I'm gonna try to get back out there tomorrow and get more pictures in more daylight. It was a race against time tonight! Rumor has it that it's leaving that particular parking "spot" on Tuesday.
