Saturday dawned bright, sunny and all around perfect for the Vero Beach Air Show. After a failed attempt to arrive via the Go Line (traffic was so snarled, the bus NEVER came) we drove the back way to a field within walking distance of the entrance. 20 mins later we were on the move in the air show shuttle, which bizarrely had the words “Medical Bus” written all over it!!!!???!!!! Say what????
Being on the move in a weirdly labelled ambo-cum-shuttle (after the city bus didn’t come) had us laughing hysterically: we documented the fun with the worst lit selfie ever:
That’s Vero!!!!
Soon enough we piled into the crowd, and began scoping out a spot for our lawnchairs:
We’d timed our arrival to coincide with the Blue Angels and while we were at the food trucks, Fat Albert (the Navy’s jet enhanced cargo carrier) took to the skies:
The minute Fat Albert landed, things REALLY ratchetted up. Maggie took a few short Iphone vids as the Boys in Blue blasted by at 500-900mph:
On the move to the nth degree!!!
A final maneuver resulted in cheers and applause quite deafening:
And all too quickly, they were neatly parked….near a port-a-potty. 🙂 🙂 🙂 Insert “on the move” bathroom humour here! hahahaha!!
On the move….in more ways than one! 😉

Phew it looked as if they clipped wings in the first video!
They pass too close, don’t they? Mindblowing really!
Great shots! I’m always afraid to watch the Blue Angels as any misstep is disaster…but enjoy watching film of their maneuvers, after I know they’re safe. Thanks, Karen!
I always think “What if they sneeze?” 😉 One false move up there and it’s curtains for everyone?!
Thanks for linking my blog! I’m reading your post with my son, he loves airplanes, and is asking to replay the videos again and again. Beautiful photos too!
You’re very welcome! I’m a big fan of pingbacks–they allow you to visit blogs you might not run across.
So glad you stopped by and liked my post. 🙂
love it…but watching these shows always has me a little apprehensive
Ahhh! Vero Beach – Home of Piper. Nice set of shots and vids 🙂
Thanks!
Yes, everyone here seems to have a friend or family member who worked at Piper for some point. 🙂
These are great shots.
Great pictures! I had fun vicariously enjoying the airshow via your post. It’s been a long time since I’ve been to an airshow–and this post makes me want to go to one sometime this summer.
