Virtual Thunderbirds performing Live at VFAT December, 2012



Once again we're returning to the virtual skies at VFAT with our tightly choreographed Thunderbird show routine flown to a high degree of accuracy.

Dates and times for our performance(s) during this year's event will be posted closer to showtime! (VFAT is scheduled for December 7-9).

Our mission is to reenact the aerial demonstration of the USAF Thunderbirds, past and present. This includes adhering to the real world radio calls, maneuver parameters and procedures, professionalism, and unbelievable attention to detail, a trademark the USAF Thunderbirds have been known for throughout its history since 1953.

We're sponsored by Thrustmaster and their line of products for flight simulator enthusiasts, including the HOTAS Warthog and MFD Cougar Pack.

Unfortunately, as of now, some of our team members and pilots are unable to participate. While we won't have our entire team available, we're making the necessary adjustments to still fly for you this week. Here are the details: VTB8 will be unavailable to narrate due to a new job and scheduling conflict. VTB5 will be unavailable to fly due to a prior commitment and scheduling conflict during Friday's show. However, we plan on arriving and performing a 6-ship practice show on Thursday and we'll be performing our 5-ship show during VFAT on Friday as well, both with complete audio and visual.

The entire VFAT 2012 Schedule (featuring all performers) can be found here.
