North Kingstown, R.I. (June 26, 2003) -- Solo aircraft assigned to the U.S. Navy's Flight Demonstration Team, "Blue Angels", perform the slowest maneuver in their show, the "Section High Alpha." During the maneuver the two jets slow down to 125 knots as they pitch the nose of the F/A-18 Hornet up to 45 degrees. U.S. Navy photo by Photographer's Mate 2nd Class Saul McSween  (RELEASED)
