We made a last minute decision to go the Thunder over Utah Air Show and we're so glad we did. It was awesome. While we waited for it to start, we let the kids do a jumping activity, which they loved. Kason was brave enough to try and do a backflip! :)
When the airshow started, the Raptor was up first. It was so cool and FAST. Aiden didn't love the noise, but he was ok. :) While the Raptor was up in the air, they had another WW2 fighter plane join it and fly side by side. That was cool to watch.
The Osprey was also a favorite. It's propellers rotated to have it fly like a helicopter or an airplane. It was sweet.
They had a few other events while they waited for the Blue Angels. They had a wing rider, where a girl got out on top of an airplane, there was a WW2 reinactment with tanks and fire throwers and they had a stunt guy who did some amazing tricks in his plane. The very best though, was the Blue Angels.
They did AMAZING tricks and when they flew in front of us, they were only 18" apart. It was sweet. They were awesome. :) Luckily they were able to finish their show before the wind picked up. It started blowing really bad by the time we left. :)
