Chattanooga Air Show 2005:
US Navy Blue Angels
Back by Popular Demand!

The Chattanooga Air Show 2005 was certainly a spectacular hit with Chattanooga residents and visitors alike!

The US Navy Blue Angels flight demonstration team was back in 2005 by popular demand.

History of Air Show Chattanooga

Chattanooga held her first air show in the spring of 1992 and was an instant success.

The success of Air Show Chattanooga contributed to her phenomenal growth from year to year. It soon became the second largest spectator event in the "scenic city".

The Chattanooga air show now attracts enough spectators and top performers that it has become one of the largest and most highly respected air shows in the industry.

In addition to top notch military performers like the US Navy Blue Angels and the US Air Force Thunderbirds (in 2002), the air show boasts some of the best aerobatic performers and static aircraft displays around today!

The 2005 air show was even more impressive than in the past!

The air show was held on October 29 and 30 for the 2005 event. Many locals were especially excited about this date so as to beat the unfathomable southern summer heat and humidity.
