The U.S. Navy Blue Angels performed a low-altitude flyover in Pensacola, Florida, during the “Breakfast With the Blues” event. The flyover was part of a demonstration, but it has raised concerns about safety. Video from the scene shows one aircraft flying very low, leaving some beachgoers thrilled and others terrified as the jet passed directly overhead.
According to local news outlets, witnesses report that the flyover produced a “mini tornado” that sent tents and chairs flying. Navy officials say the aircraft flew lower than standard profiles. The safety of the community, spectators, and pilots is the highest priority, and team leadership is reviewing the circumstances surrounding the maneuver to ensure all operations adhere to strict Navy and FAA safety standards.
