 72 Years of
Aviation
Excellence
In 1946, the Chief of Naval Operations, Admiral Chester Nimi-
tz, had a vision to create a flight exhibition team in order to raise
the public’s interest in naval aviation and boost Navy morale.
In the 1940’s, we thrilled audiences with our precision combat
maneuvers in the F6 Hellcat, the F8 Bearcat and the F9 Panther.
During the 1950’s, we refined our demonstration with aerobatic
maneuvers in the F9 Cougar and F-11 Tiger and introduced the
first six-plane delta formation, still flown to this day. By the end
of the 1960’s, we were flying the F-4 Phantom, the only two seat
aircraft flown by the delta formation. In 1974, we transitioned
to the A-4 Skyhawk, a smaller and lighter aircraft with a tighter
turning radius allowing for a more dynamic flight demonstration.
In 1986, we celebrated our 40th Anniversary by unveiling the
Boeing F/A-18 Hornet, which we still fly to this day.
In 1949, it became necessary for the Blue Angels to operate
a support aircraft to move personnel and equipment between
show sites. These support aircraft including the Douglas R4D
Sky Train, the Curtiss R5C Commando, the Douglas R5D Sky-
master, and the Lockheed C-121 Super Constellation. In 1970
the team received the Lockheed Martin C-130, affectionately
known as “Fat Albert.”

The U.S. Navy Blue Angels

The Blue Angels’ mission is to enhance Navy and Marine Corps
recruiting efforts and to represent the naval service to the United
States, its elected leadership and foreign nations. The Blue Angels
serve as positive role models and goodwill ambassadors for the U.S.
Navy and Marine Corps. A Blue Angels flight demonstration exhibits
choreographed refinements of skills possessed by all naval aviators. It
includes the graceful aerobatic maneuvers of the four-plane Diamond
Formation, in concert with the fast-paced, high-performance maneu-
vers of its two Solo Pilots. Finally, the team illustrates the pinnacle of
precision flying, performing maneuvers locked as a unit in the re-
nowned, six-jet Delta Formation. Since its inception in 1946, the Blue
Angels have performed for more than 427 million fans.

 History’s on Display at
Patuxent River Naval Air Museum
By Dick Myers
Editor
Looking for a perfect way to absorb Patux-
ent River Naval Air Station’s 75-year history?
Look no farther than just ouside the base’s
Gate 1, where the new Patuxent River Na-
val Air Museum (PRNAM) sits proudly with a
flightline of 22 aircraft just outside its doors.
The museum has been open in its new quar-
ters along Route 235 for about 18 months.
It’s in front of the building that had previously
housed the museum, and which is now being
renovated for collections and other uses.
The museum is new in more than just the
building. According to the museum’s website,
“It is no longer an official U.S. Navy museum
following federal budget restructuring. The
Museum is now a private, non-profit (501C(3))
organization working in conjunction with St
Mary’s County. With the recently completed
construction of a multi-million dollar capital
project that transformed the Museum, it is
now displaying the potential to become a pre-
mier cultural institution and economic driver
for the county.“
The museum, however, is not new. It is cel-
ebrating its 40th anniversary this year, parallel-
ing the base’s landmark 75th birthday.
Exhibits inside the museum trace the base’s
timeline from before construction began, to
the commissioning ceremony on April 1, 1943
to the present day.
So how is the museum different? According
to their website: “When compared to other
aviation-focused museums, PRNAM is unique
in terms of its collections and mission. Where-
as most aviation museums focus on opera-
tional aircraft and exhibits, PRNAM focuses
on the research, development, test and evalu-
ation environment. Ideas and concepts that
were developed and introduced to the Fleet
form the basis of its interpretive program.
PRNAM also displays concepts that never
made it to the Fleet that makes the museum’s
collection all the more unique. Artifacts and
simulators, films and books spanning the his-
tory of Naval Aviation topped off with a display
of 22 one-of-a-kind aircraft.”
The museum features an extensive collec-
tion of flight test and naval artifacts ranging
from ejection seats and weapons to un-
manned aerial vehicles and full-size aircraft.
The following aircraft are on display:
• McDonnell Douglas NA-4M Skyhawk
• North American RA-5C Vigilante
• Grumman NA-6E Intruder
• LTV NA-7A Corsair II
• McDonnell Douglas F-4J Phantom II
• Douglas NF-6A(F4D) Skyray
• Grumman F9F-8B Cougar
• Grumman F-14A Tomcat
• McDonnell Douglas NF/A-18A Hornet

cated above. Buoys will mark the
