The route "VR-1251" is a 200 foot above-gound level subsonic route. It starts over the Pacific and winds through the Cascades and Sierra Mountains. The McDonnell Douglas (now Boeing) F/A-18 Hornet is a twin-engine, twin-seater supersonic jet with a top speed of Mach 1.8. It has been the aerial demonstration aircraft for the Blue Angels since 1986.
