It's become one of San Francisco most popular and loudest traditions: The Blue Angels air show, which headlines San Francisco Fleet Week.
The Blue Angels take over the sky between the Golden Gate and Alcatraz for a show of U.S. military might and aerial acrobatics.
San Francisco Fleet Week was started in 1981 by then-Mayor Dianne Feinstein. It's grown into the largest annual celebration of the United States Armed Forces in the country.The air show may have become annual tradition for Nesbit's family, but she says this year, the fog made it hard to see and may have shortened the show.
Fleet Week is expected to draw more than a million visitors to San Francisco and generate close to $10 million dollars in revenue for the city, as it emerges from the pandemic. This is Humberto Arevalo's second time attending Fleet Week. The weather was an issue for some, but that wasn't his biggest complaint."The services of the city, not many bathrooms. Stuff like that. I think they need more police because . But it's OK. it's San Francisco. We understand," said Arevalo, who is quick to point out that he and his friends still felt safe.
