Fargo, ND – The Fargo AirSho headlined with US Navy Blue Angels performed from the Hector International Airport on Saturday and Sunday (July 27, 28, 2024). The last time the US Navy Blue Angels were in Fargo, North Dakota was three years ago with Fargo native Brian Kesselring serving as Commanding Officer and Flight Leader. Performing 2024 Blue Angels’ boss was #1 Cmdr Alexander Armatas.
Thousands gathered both days to watch the sharp technical formations and performances of the US Navy Blue Angels, F-22 Raptor as well as two F-5 Tiger Sharks jets and World War II-era P-51 Mustang. The Blue Angels will perform 2024 at least 60 shows at 30 locations in the United States and Canada with two shows at one location.
The technical flight maneuvers were amazing and capturing the crowd’s full attention. Skill and precision showed at every moment from when they said “start your engines.”
