We invite anyone who may be in the Las Vegas area for the Aviation Nation event to plan for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see a virtual d...

Since everyone wants to hear from the Boss on this matter, I will tell you that we have contact with the person who actually arranges those flights and we have never once intimated that we wanted an incentive flight. That's not what we are about. Incentive flights, as LD explained, go to media and f...

What I say now I say in humble confidence: I am not aware of any team right now that could fly a complete high show in less than 45 minutes using show timing between Diamond and Solos and do it in the virtual world without a mishap. We have raised the bar for ourselves using collisions "on" to make ...

We have contacts with the real Team, alumni, and others who work with the Thunderbirds behind the scenes but we choose not to advertise the fact. So I guess it will depend who you talk to. Good luck and enjoy the shows when you see them.

Thanks for the note. I would suggest you send a PM to our Recruiting officer, Burner and get something set up with him. Then we can take it from there.

Airshow, first of all, real callsigns, at least those in the USAF and USN community are "bestowed" not self chosen. All of the callsigns on the Thunderbirds were bestowed by squadron mates in previous flying assignments for some type of behavior, a variation of one's name, an exceptional flying feat...
