Blue Skies is a salutation or valediction among sport parachutists and freefallers, based upon a civilian interpretation of appropriate conditions for jumping. Military parachutists jump at night, in foul weather, and with field or combat gear, so they prefer the safer "clear skies"!

Some don't appreciate Blue Skies. It implies motion, has good composition and lots of blue.
