Two members of the Blue Angel Flight Squad visit the Lakes Region in advance of their show here next year.

Blue Angel #7, Major Scott Laux, call sign “Goldie”, and Blue Angel #8 LCDR Lillie Montana, call sign “Lunchbox”, arrived at the Branson Airport Friday for a tour to gear up for the event, "The 2025 Branson Wings of Pride Air Show", coming up next August.

Branson Mayor Larry Milton and Hollister Mayor Lamar Patton were among the area officials on hand to greet the pilots as they flew into the airport and met with officials to discuss next year's show.

Tickets for the air show will officially go on sale to the general public this week according to a post on the City of Branson Facebook Page with a complete recap of their visit available on the Ozarks First Website.
