JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – If you notice a little extra noise overhead this week, don’t worry: it’s just the Blue Angels practicing at Naval Air Station Jacksonville.
The Blue Angels, the U.S. Navy’s elite flight demonstration team, will be holding several practice sessions at the base Wednesday through Friday. These practice sessions will not be open to the public.
The Navy canceled all upcoming air shows scheduled at bases throughout the Southeast in response to restrictions put in place as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. This week’s practice sessions aim to keep the Blue Angels in top form until those restrictions are lifted.
