The above frequency list is a direct copy word for word from Larry Van Horn's 2014 Air Show Guide. :roll:

Thanks Jim. I said this before, but as you can see show center is between the log boom and Mercer Island not as it was for decades, between the logboom and the pits.

Yeah it sure looks like it.
Look closely and you will notice the canopy is different than the other three. And the paint job just behind the canopy is different also.

This must be the jet they use to take people up for a demo flight. Wonder who the lucky one will be from Kiro7 this year?

"The show's narrator flies Blue Angel 7, a two-seat F/A-18B Hornet, to show sites. The Blues use this jet for backup, and to give demonstration rides to VIP civilians. Three backseats at each show are available; one of them goes to members of the press, the other two to "Key Influencers".[10] The No.4 slot pilot often flies the No. 7 aircraft in Friday's "practice" shows."

Anyone get any hits on 305.5? I have it in my scanner from years past as channel 10 but it seems that some places have 305.9 as channel 10.
