Andrews Air Show 2012

The Andrews Air Show is an annual air show and Joint Service Open House at Andrews Air Force Base near Washington DC. The 2012 show will feature the Blue Angels, the United States Navy's flight demonstration squadron, performing fast-paced aerobatic maneuvers of two, four and six planes flying in formation. The Golden Knights, the U.S. Army Parachute Team, will perform in this year's show along with many other aerial and ground attractions.

The air show is family-friendly and a great way to support our military and marvel over the aerial maneuvers of skilled aviators. Admission is free. Attendees are allowed to bring their own lawn chairs. Backpacks are prohibited and no outside food or beverages are permitted.
