They were spooning. That's gay.

It’s the Navy way.

I heard someone call it the growler demo(lition).

All jokes aside, thank God the pilots ejected safely.

Navy has grounded four of their five demo teams.

Only the Blues are not affected.

The Navy treats demo teams very differently than the USAF. Will they adopt more of a "USAF model" in the future?

Turns out doing a Demo as an additional duty with minimal practice time is not ideal.
