166. Yuma Air Show 2026: The Blue Angels Came Back After 40 Years

The Blue Angels hadn’t performed in Yuma in nearly 40 years, and we were there for their comeback. We spent a hot March Saturday at the 60th Annual Yuma Air Show at MCAS Yuma, and it delivered in every way.

In this episode, we talk about the historic Blue Angels return, jaw-dropping facts about how they fly, and all the other performers that made this one of the best free family events we have ever attended. Tora Tora Tora with pyro, the USMC F-35B demo, Ace Maker Airshows, a jet-powered ’57 Chevy, skydivers, warbirds, and so much more.

We also give you our honest family review: what worked, what didn’t, and exactly what to bring if you plan to go in future years.
