@fibberdejibbet well i live right under the runway of tinker AFB and ive seen things you woul think impossible we have some outstanding pilots and i have faith in our technology
Went to Blue Angels show 2 years ago and it was as wonderful as I remember as a child. Went to Air Force Thunderbirds last year, fell asleep while watching. Like watching cars go by on freeway. Straight close formations almost the whole time. Canadian Snow Birds seem to be more of the same. If Air Force is trained to fly and all they can do is fly formations, the U.S. is screwed. Like the Top Gun movie said, we lack close air combat capabilility. Thank goodness for heat seeking missiles.
wow i do not get you blue angels and thunderbirds are the same its just that blue angels represent the navy and the thunderbirds are for the air force.
Have to say, I think they are atrocious. I saw them in England and even they acknowledged the Red Arrows don't use computers to aid them, only maps and compass. Even minor displays like the Jordanian Air Display were better than then Thunderbirds.
I'm Dutch and even i love the USAF! Great Video By the way. And the flying is great! Does anyone know if they use G-suits? The Blue Angels don't. (Don't look at how i spelled it i'm Dutch.)
I have always loved the "16" It is such a great design. Any engineer can look at that aircraft and marvel at the perfect selection and balance of every aspect! Did I say how much I love the "16"?

At the 2:00 mark, it shows a Thunderbird flying pretty low in between skyscrapers. Isn't that against FAA rules...especially after 9/11???

@bwguidry Ha man I think the Thunderbirds got permission to fly between a couple skyscrapers. They're only the best pilots in the world bud.
