AMERICA STRONG

摘要

THE US AIR Force Thunderbirds flight demonstration team and the US Navy Blue Angels have come together for a series of flybys over the US under Operation 'America Strong' This commenced with a flight over the New York City area on April 28. Blue Angels team leader CDR Brian Kesselring said in a video interview: 'Although our primary mission is flight demonstrations, one thing that is coupled with that - that we don't get to do due to this pandemic - is the community outreach. Reaching out and helping or touching the lives of those inside each community in every airshow that we get a chance to perform in. What we thought when we got together with the Thunderbirds is in what way we can we reach out and maybe touch those lives? If nothing more than neighbors looking out through their window pane at each other together and watching a couple flight demonstration teams fly by. Maybe increase the morale and have a visible show of support. I thought that's something we could do together."
