Blue Angels NOT In The Air, But ON The Air At TK 101
Since the Navy’s Blue Angels precision flight squad has cancelled their 2013 Air Show schedule due to the sequester, two of the pilots recently did a guest DJ stint with APD/MD/Afternoon Host Mark the Shark on Active Rock WTKX (TK 101)/Pensacola. “Since they can’t be in the air, they were on the air” was the mantra from TK 101. With Pensacola being the home base of the Blue Angels, Pensacola locals were disappointed that they were forced to cancel their season, which includes an annual summer show on Pensacola Beach and the homecoming show in November.
With free time on their hands after their guest DJ appearance, the Angels asked if they could do anything else. WTKX obliged and the photo shows the Blue Angels hard at work polishing up the TK 101 van. Pictured L to R: Blue Angels Lt. Cmdr. Hintz and Lt. Chamberlain.
