Megan Vande Voort snapped these pictures during the 2021 SUN ‘n FUN Aerospace Expo, held April 13-18, in Lakeland, Florida. Whenever the Blue Angels perform at an airshow, a local person is selected for a flight in one of the Blues’ jets. At this year’s show, SUN ‘n FUN officials were adamant that person would be someone who was on the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic.

She got her chance to fly with Blue Angels No. 7 on April 14 during the show.
