The reason the dont wear G Suits is not because of tradition it is because they have a centered stick with 40lbs of forward pressure. G suits would restrict them. While the T Birds have a side stick that is touch sensitive and only moves 1/8 or 1/16th or a in and a g suit would not restrict them
@bmxwylie So have I, but unfortunately only celebrities, heads of state, members of the media and "hometown heroes" are selected to ride with the Thunderbirds. Trust me, I feel your pain.
@albi649 The first song is Ignition by Tobymac. The second song was Here Is Our King by David Crowder Band. The third song is Open Skies by David Crowder Band. That is the remix version of it. The last song is Feelin' So Fly by Tobymac.
Yeah, while unfortunately us little pions who are not priviledged enough to be a VIP or a press member are forced to be on the ground and just wish. *sigh*
Why does the Blue angels Don't wear Oxygen Masks?

I've always wondered who normally rides in the back of Thunderbird 8.

Good Job. How does someone get a ride with the Thunderbirds?

Need to be a member of the Press, or have VERY close ties to some VERY high up members of the USAF.
At some shows, although not often, give members of the local media rides in the #8 Plane (The F-16D that the Thunderbird's use).
