Blue Angels Frequencies - 2007

[jennwill99]

I have researched these frequencies and believe they are the most up-to-date ones since the 2004-5 change. A majority of these come from the March 2007 Issue of Monitoring Times, but may still need verification. Others come from other observers this year.

Since the Air Show season is still young, I think a lot of people would appreciate any and all updates and corrections or verifications you can make to this list. I have not verfied any of these frequencies yet - only compiled them.

A .MEM file For the Blue Angels is attached (zipped) for the BCD396T if you would like to upload it to your scanner using ARCPRO. As I will be going to the show at NAS Oceana, I have also included the .MEM file (zipped) for that Master Jet Base.

After last week's crash, will the BAs be performing at airshows the rest of this season?

 

[CORN]

Yes, they will. After a review and a few weeks standown they will be back up. It's my understanding from one of my milcom lists that a replacement has been named for the fallen #6. One of the former lead solos from a couple years ago. I'm not sure of his name.

I posted a bit under two difffirent post on the SC forum including the frequencies that I heard in Beaufort for that fatal airshow.

My self and a couple others had just finished listening to pilot to pilot comms when the incident occured. We heard nothing unusual.

My thread was Blue Angles in town and the other concered the crash

They just took to the skies this morning for practice. The team has canceled May Fifth and May Sixth performances at Offutt Air Force Base in Nebraska. But officials say they hope to perform again May 12th at Seymour Johnson Air Force Base in Goldsboro, North Carolina

Will the Pro-96 or Pro97 monitor the Blue Angles, or do i need something different.
If something else is needed what's a cheap recomendation.
Thanks in advance.

The pro 97 works well for me.
Happy scanning
