For those claiming the Blue Angels incident yesterday was perfectly fine, here is their lead pilot, Captain Adam Bryan, saying it was unsafe and that they will work to make sure it doesn't happen again.
Listen to this guy, not Hegseth or
his PR guy.
I'm glad the people who matter are taking it seriously.
@The_Holy_Sea@PickleOlympics@patdennis Yes. And that’s why this is going through a safety review? Regardless of whatever some bureaucrat shitposts on Twitter about.
@PickleOlympics@patdennis Comparing the most infamous Airshow crash for us- burnt into the minds of everyone in the demo world- to a low pass under review by a safety team whose entire job is Airshow threat mitigation? Ok man.
Apache wasn’t a demo dude. Not trained for demo ops. Not remotely comparable.
@PickleOlympics@patdennis Because you’re still going through this entire event with the belief they’re deliberating flying as low as possible for shits and gigs.
Find literally everyone else on this website who works in military aviation saying “No, this IS going through a safety board with the blues”.
