At the Knoxville Air National Guard Air Show a while back. Three of my favorite (and harder to get) shots:

 

Blue Angels 1
Blue Angels 2
Blue Angels 3

I missed the Huntington Beach Air Show this year. I didn't want to be in a crowd of a million spectators.

I definitely do not blame you there! We had an abundance of people show up - parking was crazy ans the walk to and from was exceptionally long!!

Wow, I'll bet those were hard shots to get. I'm thinking you were lucky they didn't shoot back.

Fine images of these aerial masters ! I have seen the Blue Angels at Chicago's lakefront and Miramar air base near San Diego several times. Incredible precision .

PERFECT synopsis - "Incredible precision." We've seen them 3 times and the Thunderbirds twice. I'm always awestruck watching them.

Walking I can handle. When we went we took an OCTA  bus. 

So, no worries about finding a parking spot and then being stuck in a traffic jam.

C... County 

T... Transportation

Since the Air Force was mentioned, I am adding some photos of the Air Force Thunderbirds.  I took these photos at a Rockford, Illinois air show about ten years ago.
