Seattle whackos at it again with this OP-ED trying to kill the Blue Angels annual Seafair appearance. Sad part is the guy that wrote it is a retired AF Flight Doc.

Not gonna click on it, because I disagree with the premise, and I don’t subscribe to the host platform.

The Seattle sub-Reddits have been pretty funny about this, with a lot of folks complaining but plenty very happy to have the Blues in town making a lot of noise. San Franciscans seem to have a similar reaction to the show there, with the crowds showing up to see the Blues making it clear that there are more than enough supporters in both cities.

Seems like there's an anti-Blue Angels post every few years, typically aligned with a Fleet Week or whenever they come out to fly. Saw a similar article for a SF/Bay Area paper a few years back.

I agree with the author that the Blues should use electric-powered aircraft
If you ditched in the ocean, would you be more worried about getting eaten by a shark, or being electrocuted though?
