The Blue Angels' McDonnell Douglas F/A-18 Hornets (numbered 1-6) are currently flown by five Navy demonstration pilots and one Marine Corps demonstration pilot. The Blue Angels typically perform aerial displays annually in at least 60 shows at 30 locations throughout the United States and 2 shows at one location in Canada.

Members of the BlueAngels team also visit more than 50,000 people in schools, hospitals, and community functions at air show cities. Since 1946, the Blue Angels have flown for more than 505 million spectators. As of November 2011, the BlueAngels received $37 million annually out of the annual DoD budget.
