Yes.
However, your opinion is equally blather.
The T-birds put on a great show, I've seen them several times, but they simply don't fly as close as the Blue Angels. They never have. Close formation has been a hallmark of the Blues since day one.
No matter how many times you hijack aviation threads to claim the contrary.
I respect your time in the USAF. My kid brother was USAF. I served as the EA to a USAF LGEN (3-star). I love the USAF.
But you've got to stop this blind "USAF is better" hogwash because it's clear that you've never seen the Blue Angels. The Blue Angels, the US Navy Flight Demonstration Team, was founded in 1946.
The USAF was founded in 1947 and the Thunderbirds in 1953.
