For Fleet week in the San Francisco Bay Area. The Blue Angels flights are a big attraction. I got a chance to get into the United Airlines maintenance facility were the Blue Angels were keeping their jets wile in the area. I was amazed at the highly ritualized actions the crews take getting the pilots in and out of their aircraft.
Getting "Fat Albert" ready for take off.
Crew waiting for the pilots
Every one has their place
Pilots loaded up! The pilots have a set of complected hand signals they use back and forth at this point.
Back on the ground after a flight. Just getting out of the airplain is a choreographed ballet.

Calling it a Day
