The Air show on Saturday and Sunday starts around 12:15 p.m. and ends around 4 p.m. . The Blue Angels start their part of the show about 3 p.m. . Be prepaired for a full day, you may want to bring something to eat or drink.

Dont forget to bring plenty of film or tape for your camera. A video camera is the best for the air show because still cameras can't show the full stunt.

During the Air Show you will see many different flying acts performed. The best stunt I saw last year was when a bi-plane stopped in midair with its nose pointing straight up and then it flew across the bay like a helicopter.

Many of these stunts will be recreated by the Navys' Blue Angels and they will be the most daring part of the whole Air Show. The field of view for the Navys' Blue Angels is much larger.

I could have added several pictures of the Navy's Blue Angels but I feel I can not make as good of a performace on the web as they deserve.

Look above at them heading straight for the Golden Gate Bridge, everyone said they are going to fly under it.
Look below for results.

I took the photo below October, 1996 or 1997?

After circling around it looked like they flew right through the cables hanging down on the bridge and everyone standing around me did not believe what they just saw. (They would have had to go through a set of cables on each side of the bridge.) Then I said I have it on tape for proof.

PLEASE NOTE: Later on I found out it was just a optical illusion and they flew over the bridge. If you want to see a video of it, click below and you can see it for yourself.
