Those are F-18 Hornets and they're a few years too late.

I don't give a shit if it IS fleet week. We are getting buzzed here in Forest Hills too and I don't appreciate it. Screw the Blue fricking Angels. Go buzz someone who cares.

When I think "Fleet Week" I think "Blue Angels" - it must be because I grew up in San Francisco, where it is a tradition for them to fly around the buildings and dip low. It is quite a fantastic sight as you are entering the city via the freeway when they are flying because you can see the whole city.

Thought We Were Under Attack

My office co worker and I saw a single plan flying low. Then a few seconds later we saw a formation of jets follow. We agreed that the planes were flying in an illegal air zone. Then when we saw what looked like the Blue Angels we firgured it out. They were saluting us with their formation. It is fleet week. Sailors....yeah!!!!
