Fleet Week in SF



If you work in San Francisco you probably were alerted to the happenings of Fleet Week today as the Blue Angels buzzed the city most of the day.

The window-rattling Blue Angels will be flying for four straight afternoons, with practice flights Thursday and Friday and air show performances Saturday and Sunday.

Events start Thursday at noon, with the six F/A-18 Hornet jets of the Blue Angels conducting a 5-hour practice flight. On Friday, the other planes in the air shows will practice, along with the Blue Angels.

On Saturday, four ships, including the amphibious assault ship Bonhomme Richard, will parade from the Golden Gate Bridge to the waterfront, beginning at 11:30 a.m. An hour later, the air show begins. [SFGate]
