Blue Angels jets arrive for air show

The first of the Navy’s Blue Angel fighter jets has arrived in New Hampshire ahead of this weekend’s Boston-Portsmouth Air Show. The F/A-18 Hornet arrived Tuesday afternoon at Portsmouth International Airport, where the air show is being held Saturday and Sunday. The Blue Angels headline a lineup that includes the US Army Golden Knights parachute team, a wing walker, the Black Diamond jet team, a P-51 Mustang World War II fighter aircraft, and other aerobatic performers. The six other Blue Angels that are flying in the show were expected to arrive in Portsmouth on Wednesday, according to the Portsmouth Herald.
