SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER STAFF

The Navy's Blue Angels will return next summer for Seafair.

The aerial display team will be the star of the air show held Aug. 6-8 in conjunction with the hydroplane races on Lake Washington.

Among the fliers will be Lt. Craig Olson, a graduate of Juanita High School in Kirkland who was the Blue Angels' show narrator this year. He'll be on the team as Pilot No. 6.

The Seattle appearance will be the only one in the Northwest by the Blue Angels, who will perform at 35 sites in 2004. Their schedule was announced yesterday in Dallas.
