Blue Tide is Joint Task Force Heavy's flight demonstration team, flying the F/A-18C Hornet in formation aerobatics at events and airshows.
Role in the community
Blue Tide represents the community with tight formation flying and rehearsed routines. The point is to fly it cleanly and consistently every time.
Flying the demo in DCS
Demonstration flying is about precision and trust. Holding a few feet of spacing through loops and crosses takes a lot of practice and constant awareness of the other aircraft.
What you'll fly
Formation aerobatics, practice sorties, and public shows. A good fit for pilots with a steady hand who want to get good at formation flying.
