The U.S. Navy Blue Angels are hard at it.
30 flights a week sounds like a great way to prep for the upcoming 2021 air show season!
Your #BlueAngels are hard at work during the first week of Winter Training at NAF El Centro, California! We are flying roughly 30 formation flights per week in our new Super Hornet platform as we gear up for our 75th show season as a flight demonstration team!
#USNavy #USMC
ICAS Member Luke Carrico, Air Show Announcer has utilized a bit of his off-season down time to catalog and preserve some of the Air Force Thunderbirds production tracks.
Certainly a trip down memory lane for many!
Sitting and collecting dust in my music library were the original Air Force Thunderbirds production soundtracks used during the 1988-1995 seasons and onwards through 2003. This was before the team began using more relevant Top 40 tracks during their demonstrations. In an effort to ensure they were not lost to time (and digital oblivion), I took the liberty to upload them to my YouTube channel.
Take a nostalgic trip and check it out.

A big congratulations to the 2020 ICAS Sword of Excellence Award winner: John Klatt
Since 1981, the International Council of Air Shows Sword of Excellence has been synonymous with air show excellence. Given each year to recognize outstanding service and personal contributions to the air show industry, the Sword is widely considered to be the single highest honor an individual air show professional can receive.
A big congratulations to the 2020 Art Scholl Memorial Showmanship Award winner: Matt Younkin
Each year, the International Council of Air Shows presents the Art Scholl Memorial Showmanship Award to the air show act or performer which best exemplifies the qualities of showmanship demonstrated by Art Scholl. His exacting, exciting and entertaining performances were a reflection of the best in our industry.
The team that conceived, planned and executed the Socially Distant Air Show in April of this year was recognized by the ICAS Board of Directors with the ICAS Special Achievement Award last night. Congrats to Matt, Rob, Ric, Steph, Jeff, and Brian for all your hard work!
ICAS SPECIAL ACHIEVEMENT AWARD: Socially Distant Air Show
The team that conceived, planned and executed the Socially Distant Air Show in April of this year was recognized by the ICAS Board of Directors with the ICAS Special Achievement Award on Wednesday evening. Matt Jolley, Ric Peterson, Rob Reider, Steph Stricklen, Jeff Lee and Bryan Lee orchestrated an elaborate, three-day, virtual air show to help lift the spirits of air show fans and ICAS members during the darkest days of last spring’s worldwide shutdown. They also raised nearly $25,000 which was later distributed by the ICAS Foundation to air show professionals in need of financial support due to the deprivations of the pandemic.
Doreen Hillard was presented with the prestigious Bob Hoover Wingman Award just last night.
CONGRATS DOREEN!
Doreen Hillard was presented with the prestigious Bob Hoover Wingman Award. Created by ICAS to recognize individuals and organizations that have served as “good wingmen” to the air show community, the award was presented to “Doritoh” for the role she has played as our industry’s unofficial goodwill ambassador for much of her adult life.

The use of flares and chaff as an added effect in military demo performances is commonly seen in European air shows. In North America, we are starting to see more widespread use and are hopeful to see this trend continue.

A LOOK BACK
Today, we honor the Veterans that have so bravely defended our freedoms throughout history, and in that effort we strive to never forget their sacrifices.
By sharing their stories (like this one of honorary Arsenal of Democracy Flyover air boss Bob Vaucher) we are one step closer to saving their memories forever.
We URGE you to take 6 minutes and watch this.
🎥:: Chris Porter of CAVU Digital Media
This Veterans Day we would like to thank those who served to defend our country and our freedom. This year the Arsenal of Democracy was honored to have Lt. Col. Bob Vaucher, World War II veteran and B-29 Superfortress pilot as the Honorary Air Boss during the event.
Watch in this video as Lt. Col. Vaucher climbs aboard B-29 Superfortress "Doc" for a trip back in time.

ICAS CONVENTION KEYNOTE / DAVID BLAINE ASCENSION
On Tuesday, December 8, the first full day of the 2020 Virtual ICAS Convention, magician, illusionist and extreme performer David Blaine will discuss Ascension, a stunt he performed in early September that saw him float to 25,000 feet above the Nevada desert holding a cluster of 52 helium balloons, before releasing the balloons and parachuting back to Earth. A work of collaboration, preparation and inspiration, Ascension had many of the elements of a successful air show. Blaine will discuss what prompted him to plan and execute the stunt, the team he pulled together to realize the vision, the meticulous and exhaustive preparation that went into executing the stunt safely and successfully, how Ascension served as a source of inspiration to the world, and how the project relates to and impacts the air show community. The session will be held from 1:45 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. EST on December 8.

ICAS was founded in 1967 as a trade and professional association by industry professionals to protect and promote their interests in the growing North American air show marketplace. At the time, this small group of air show event organizers and performers recognized the need for standardization of industry practices in key areas such as safety and business practices that could only be achieved collectively. They knew that -- for such standardization to occur -- the industry needed to act and speak with a single voice and that voice was established in ICAS. Today, the organization’s mission statement has evolved a bit, but still focuses on the core principles around which the organization was created: 1) to maintain safety; 2) to serve as an information resource on air show issues for those within and outside the industry; 3) to provide for the training and continuing education needs of ICAS members and air show professionals generally; and 4) to promote the air show industry to the media, Corporate North America and the general public.

ICAS was founded in 1967 as a trade and professional association by industry professionals to protect and promote their interests in the growing North American air show marketplace. At the time, this small group of air show event organizers and performers recognized the need for standardization of industry practices in key areas such as safety and business practices that could only be achieved collectively. They knew that -- for such standardization to occur -- the industry needed to act and speak with a single voice and that voice was established in ICAS.
Today, the organization’s mission statement has evolved a bit, but still focuses on the core principles around which the organization was created:
The International Council of Air Shows is dedicated to building and sustaining a vibrant air show industry to support its membership. To achieve this goal, ICAS will demand its members operate their business at only the highest levels of safety, professionalism, and integrity.
