Blue Angel Dropped Before Final Show

Maj. Scott Laux, the No. 6 member of the Blue Angels has been dropped from the Marines’ air demonstration team for undisclosed misconduct. “Blue Angel #6 was removed from the team for failing to uphold the standards expected of members of the Navy Flight Demonstration Squadron and will not participate in the team’s remaining performance this season,” the Navy said in a statement Friday.

Laux was dropped on Nov. 3 and missed the team’s final homecoming show at Pensacola on Friday. The team flew with five aircraft for that show. His biography and photo have also been removed from the team’s website. Laux was assigned to various F/A-18 squadrons, including a deployment on the USS Nimitz before joining the Blue Angels in 2025 as narrator. He flew the full 2026 season as the opposing solo except in the last show with the team.
