Here are my modern pilots. For a few WWII pilots, look on my WWII pages.

This Naval & Marine Corp flight demonstration team was born in 1946. They currently fly the McDonnell Douglas F/A-18 Hornet, which has a 50,000 foot ceiling at Mach 1.7.

Thanks to the Blue Angel Alumni website for the picture & data on the flight team.
