Before landing, the pilot flew a short demonstration for the crowd that had gathered to greet the aircraft.
Only five museums will get to keep a Blue Angel legacy Hornet and this is the one out of two that flew to its final destination. The other jet was flown to the Smithsonian Museum.
The three other aircraft will be dismantled and truck to their final resting place.
