Belleville — This is one memory Luke Glendening never will forget.
Glendening took to the skies above Metro Detroit on Wednesday courtesy of the Blue Angels. He was tossed and turned, going through many of the same precision maneuvers the Blue Angels execute during air shows.
And after it was over, Glendening was beaming.
“It was unbelievable,” Glendening said of his flight with Capt. Jeff Kuss aboard an F/A-18 Hornet. “You couldn’t get the smile off my face up there. Just a special memory I’ll have forever.”
The Red Wings have been involved with the Blue Angels for several years, with one player taking flight every summer.
