The U.S. Navy Flight Demonstration Squadron, the Blue Angels, conducted the final flight on the F/A-18 A/B/C/D "Legacy" Hornets marking the official transition of the Blue Angels to the F/A-18 E/F Super Hornet platform. The 2020 show season marked the end of the service life of the aircraft the team has flown for 34 years. The 2021 show season will be the Blue Angels’ first year flying the Super Hornet platform as well as the 75th anniversary of the team.

Blue Angels Solo Practice • El Centro 2021
Check out this video of Lt. Cmdr. Cary Rickoff, Blue Angel #6, conducting a training flight over NAF El Centro, CA and the Imperial Valley with Cmdr. Ben Walborn, Blue Angel #5!
Below you can find a detailed breakdown of the maneuvers you see in the video!
Before integrating with the #1 - #4 pilots to form the signature Delta formation, the solo pilots will practice their famous opposing maneuvers together.
0:00 Lt. Cmdr Rickoff performs his first maneuver, the Low Transition to Immelman on take off. The maneuver begins from takeoff as he retracts his landing gear, maintaining minimum distance from the ground, then executes a high performance climb, followed by a half-loop.
23:27 Next you see #6 executing a high G-force pull from behind the crowd, in order to expeditiously rendezvous with #5 for the next maneuver.
32:24 The next maneuver is the Opposing Horizontal Roll. This maneuver requires #5 and #6 to perform two consecutive rolls, followed by the selection of max afterburner and execute a 7G pull to a vertical climb.
1:06:19 The final maneuver of every show is the Pitch-Up Break (PUB). The PUB requires #1 - #6 to pitch up and away from the Delta Formation to deconflict their flight path. As they individually breakaway from the Delta Formation, they turn downwind, slowing down their aircraft in preparation for landing.

Blue Angel Opposing Minimum Radius Turn - El Centro 2021
Check out this clip from the cockpit of Lt. Cmdr. Cary Rickoff, Blue Angel #6, as he conducts the Opposing Minimum-Radius Turn!
In the Opposing Minimum-Radius Turn #5 and #6 approach from behind the crowd, passing over center point, while simultaneously rolling their aircraft 270 degrees away from each other, crossing each other’s flight path. #5 and #6 conduct the Minimum Radius Turn, to cross back once more over show center in front of the crowd. After crossing, #5 and #6 execute 3 1/2 rolls in the climb as they complete the maneuver.
