BOEING SEAFAIR AIR SHOW PERFORMERS
U.S. Navy Blue Angels
Since 1946, the Blue Angels have performed for more than 500 million fans. Their mission is to showcase the teamwork and professionalism of the United States Navy and Marine Corps by inspiring a culture of excellence and service to country through flight demonstrations and community outreach.
U.S. Army Golden Knights
Since 1962, the Golden Knights have conducted more than 16,000 shows in 50 states and 48 countries, reaching an average of 60,000 people per show.

U.S. navy c-130 fat albert
Fat Albert is a United States Marine Corps Lockheed C-130J Super Hercules that is used by the Blue Angels for their logistics. In-between shows, it hauls other Blue Angels team members, luggage, and equipment from town to town across America. Fat Albert traditionally kicks off every Blue Angels performance with a flyby and maneuvers of its own.
U.S. Air Force F-35A
The F-35A, a fifth-generation multi-role stealth fighter, will showcase its unparalleled agility, speed, and precision in a breathtaking performance that highlights the pinnacle of modern aerial prowess. Spectators can anticipate heart-stopping maneuvers, including high-speed passes, tight turns, and vertical climbs, all accompanied by the unmistakable roar of its powerful engine.
U.S. Marine Corps F-35B
This vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) variant of the F-35 family will showcase its unique versatility and agility, demonstrating its ability to operate from amphibious assault ships and austere, expeditionary airfields. The F-35B's remarkable hovering and precise maneuverability, coupled with its advanced sensor systems, promise an unforgettable display of aerial prowess.
U.S. Air Force C-17 Globemaster III
Prepare for a breathtaking display of airborne might as the U.S. Air Force C-17 Globemaster III graces the skies above Seattle. This massive, strategic airlift aircraft will showcase its impressive agility and versatility, defying expectations for an aircraft of its size. Spectators can expect awe-inspiring low-level flyovers, impressive tactical maneuvers, and the sheer power of the C-17's four turbofan engines.
U.S. Coast Guard Search and Rescue Demo
Watch in awe as highly trained Coast Guard professionals operate rescue helicopters, showcasing their precision and efficiency while executing life-saving operations. With a focus on teamwork, advanced technology, and unwavering commitment to saving lives, the U.S. Coast Guard's SAR demo promises to be a thrilling tribute to the crucial role they play in safeguarding our maritime communities.
US Navy EA-18G Growler Demo Team
The Growler Demo Team performs at air shows across the United States as part of the U.S. Navy Legacy Flight Team, designed to keep Naval Aviation’s ties to its proud heritage alive and viable. So, they will not perform in a full demonstration, but rather they will fly with legacy aircraft during air show in a similar fashion as the U.S. Air Force Heritage Flight.
PBY-5A Catalina 9767
The Consolidated PBY Catalina is a flying boat and amphibious aircraft that was produced in the 1930s and 1940s. In Canadian service it was known as the Canso. It was one of the most widely used seaplanes of World War II. Catalinas served with every branch of the United States Armed Forces and in the air forces and navies of many other nations.
Boeing 777-9
The new Boeing 777-9 will be the largest and most fuel-efficient twin-engine jet in the world, with an exceptional passenger experience. Boeing has invested more than $1 billion in its Everett, Wash. site to design and build the 777-9, 777-8 Freighter and 777-8 airplanes -- the 777X family -- for decades to come.
