Two jets with the US Navy Blue Angels Flight Demonstration Squadron, seen from Liberty State Park in Jersey City, N.J., execute a survey flight over the Statue of Liberty on April 2, 2012. The two F/A-18 Hornets flew practice runs to familiarize and evaluate a potential flight course for the upcoming US Navy War of 1812 commemoration during this year’s Fleet Week celebration in May.
