The climax of the Seafair festival season comes in the first weekend of August, with the hydroplane races and the Blue Angels Navy jets air show over Lake Washington. Some of the residents around Lake Washington complain of the super-sonic speed and jet-roar of the Blue Angels, but many people come from far and wide – even from other states – to watch the show. Their aerial acrobatics and precise coordination are fascinating, but on the other hand, when I watch them I can’t help thinking that I wouldn’t want to be under attack by these fighters in a real war.
