Why was Scott Laux suspended?

The Navy did not disclose when or why Marine Maj. Scott Laux, 37, a second-year pilot for the elite stunt squadron. 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.

Both Laux and Cribb were photographed together at a Pensacola Blue Wahoos minor league baseball game in April, when Laux presented her an award for her promotion behind home plate. Laux was described in the social media post as Cribb’s “mentor.” He presented her an award for a recent promotion before the game.

He subsequently completed Marine officer training and an extensive flight-training programme. His military decorations include two Navy and Marine Corps Commendation Medals, along with multiple unit awards.

Laux joined the Blue Angels in September 2024 and served as the team's narrator in 2025.
