Blue Angels at El Centro, CA

No that is just the box there. Have you gone to many airshows? For example the blues get to fly lower. Each performer also has a different type of cert from the FAA that allows for certain type of maneuvers. At Chino, the distance is not that far from the crowd. I think the distance has to be 500 ft. At El Centro due to how the runaways are layed out that is where they have to put the spectators.
