Wow Gunner I sure wish I could recognize your faces (VTB's) me and my wife couldn't have been more than a few feet away from you and your family Saturday afternoon. It would have been great to shake the hand of a Virtual Thunderbird and tell you how much I enjoy all of you in person. I was the only ...

I saw the F-22 in flight for the first time last weekend while at the Pima air museum. They were having the heritage flight weekend at DM, it was great. I'll be taking my wife to the Luke show, she's never seen the Thunderbirds perform. It's going to be great!

MERRY CHRISTMAS to all the Virtual Thunderbirds past and present and your families. I'm down here near Gunner in Tucson it's a cool 62 degrees and no snow, I learned to hate that stuff when I was in Washington D.C.

Hey Knox! Again welcome to the Thunderbirds forum the videos are good, but you have to see these guys live to really realize how good they are and what they put into it. As a fellow mechanic and 24 years in the Air Force we can appriciate it more then most. As for the C-17 well lets just say I'm a C...

Yep Dyess never really knew how to put on an air show lol, but the one thing I will never forget is the people and how hard they fight for and support the military there.

Just wanted to let you know that I've been a fan since 2005 and that your hard work has not gone unnoticed. As a member of the USAF for 24 years I am very proud of what you do and stand for. Keep up the good work and I look forward to seeing the next movie and watching you at VFAT 2008.
