Blue Angels number 7 was here at Deer Valley all day giving media rides. He must have givin at least ten rides. Same drill on every takeoff; lift off, accelerate under military power part way down the runway, bump it into burner, and pull it into an abrupt seventy degree or more climb up and through the top of the class delta just past the airport boundary.

If I'm not mistaken, they video tape these rides from a camera mounted on the back of the pilots seat aimed at the passenger in the back seat...nice souvenir, just don't blow chow.
Sure wish they gave rides to guys and gals like us more often...Hmmm, lets see, an F-18 ride or Superbowl tickets...no contest...
