Blue Angels Return for 2011 Quonset Air Show

The U.S. Navy's flight demonstration team, the world-famous Blue Angels, will be headlining this year's Rhode Island National Guard Air Show at Quonset State Airport on June 25 & 26. Gates open at 0900 each day, with the show to start at 1000. This is one of the most popular events of the season in the boating community, as the show is spectacular when viewed from the water!

The Rhode Island National Guard Open House and Air Show was established in 1991 and offers the finest aerial and static displays, along with activities for people of all ages. The show has operated for 18 consecutive years. From its inception, the show has operated with a simple creed; put on a world class show featuring only the best aircraft and pilots and operate the show totally for the benefit of the community. To date, contributions to local charities have exceeded $1,400,000. The Hasbro Children’s Hospital has been the largest beneficiary and has received over $1,200,000 since the show began.
