Saw the Thunderbird's at Scranton/Wilkes Barre airport in 1999. They totally got me on the sneak pass, never saw it coming. We were all watching #1-4 do a slow synchronized barrel roll, I was like "wow, so pretty" and then #5 comes roaring by, it was great.
they have one engine but their engines are way powerful, 35,000 lbs of thrust on the pratt & whitney f-100 pw-129 engine, now if you insert that engine into the hornet to replace the GE f-404 turbofan engines it's gonna accelerate doubleing the viper's jet
Hey if anybody is interested in flying one of these amazing jets( F-18) please contact this AIM screen name for more info!!! ( this is a virtual air-show and will require commitment and previous flight simulator knowledge to fly with us) please make contact to this AIM screen name for more info.....sjcpilot.... thank you

No fair! I've seen the Blues many times before and I've never seen them perform the Sneak Pass that low before. Must be something new.

you've got nice vids, and I was there, but do you add in your sounds later? They aren't nearly the way it actually sounded.
