There are many books about the Blue Angels and a few could really help you in your project. Squadron Signal Publication has a special title on the subject. There are (many little) mistakes in the colour drawings and picture legends but altogether, in terms of pictorial record, it is very good (the edition I have still only covers 1946-early 80s, before they went with the Hornet). That book is writen by Jin McGuire and it has the SSP code 6030.
Another GREAT reference is Reflections of Blue, a Pictorial History of the US Navy Blue Angels, by Carol Knotts, Speciality Press, isbn 0933424248. It covers the period 1946-80. It has great pics of the Bearcat by the way!
Both those books were of great help when I did MY history of the Blues in models, back in 85-86...
There must be thousand of websites devoted to the subject, including the official one...
Good luck, and keep us updated on your progress.
