2024 Blue Angels Homecoming Airshow - F-35A Lightning II Demonstration

Описание: Major Melanie "Mach" Kluesner takes to the skies to showcase the F-35A Lightning II over Naval Air Station Pensacola, the only F-35 demonstration that took place of what should have been two F-35 demonstrations at the 2024 Blue Angels Homecoming Airshow.

Mach put on a FANTASTIC demonstration of the F-35A, used by the United States Air Force and included additional maneuvers at the end of the performance as a Heritage Flight did not materialize either Friday or Saturday. Her demonstration was the only F-35 demo that weekend as the U.S. Navy's F-35C Demo Team was in attendance but unable to perform due to maintenance issues. The F-35C that was in attendance and would have flown was put on static display.

The 2024 Blue Angels Homecoming Airshow took place on November 1-2, 2024 at Naval Air Station Pensacola (KNPA). This year's Homecoming Airshow is special as it is the first time both the Blue Angels and Thunderbirds appeared at NAS Pensacola and it is also the final airshow for veteran airshow announcer Rob Reider. This video was shot on Saturday November 2, 2024.

MUSIC DISCLAIMER: Please keep in mind that any music in the video was played through a public address system and ZINGER AVIATION MEDIA does not have any control over what music is being played during an air show. Over the years, the music industry has increased its concern to ensure they are paid when copyrighted music is played. Therefore, according to Air Combat Command Aerial Events, any U.S. air show, civilian or military, hosting an Air Force aircraft performance which includes music, secure the necessary music licenses for broadcast of pre-recorded copyrighted music over public address systems. For the 2024 airshow season, the International Council of Air Shows (ICAS) has negotiated a deal that will allow issuance of music licenses for ICAS member air shows for all three US music licensing organizations: ASCAP, BMI, and SESAC. Each ICAS member air show is eligible for a single package of the three music licenses for one air show at the cost of $650 for a one (1) day air show; $950 for a two (2) day air show; $1,200 for a three (3) day air show; $1,450 for a four (4) day air show; $1,700 for a five (5) day air show, $1,950 for a six (6) day air show; and $2,200 for a seven (7) day air show. The rate applies only to music broadcast over the public address system during the air show portion of the program and does not provide the air show with the right to use pre-recorded music at concerts or other non-air show special events held in conjunction with the air show.
