The U.S. Navy Blue Angels performances require a larger aerobatic box than normal, with a modified crowd line in force during the afternoon air shows on July 28-29.

The crowd line will run the entire length of the flightline, about 120 feet west of the regular crowd burn line. The line will be clearly marked and will run through the entire length of aircraft camping, including south of the ultralight area. Visitors will have access to this area until 1:30 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. Pilots and crew members with aircraft parked between the two crowd lines will be allowed in the area with a security escort to preform essential tasks only 1:30-4 p.m. on Friday and 1:30-5 p.m. on Saturday.

Full access to the area will be restored after the completion of the daily air show on Friday, July 28 and Saturday, July 29.
