Kansas City Air Show on August 24th, 2008. UNITED STATES AIR FORCE THUNDERBIRDS FLIGHT DEMONSTRATION TEAM.
Some interesting facts about the Thunderbirds :
-- During their shows, they fly at .94 MACH.
-- Towards the end of their show, all 6 pilots fly in what is called the Delta Formation. It is called this because they form in the shape of a D, the fourth letter of the Greek Alphabet, "Delta".
-- There is currently a female flying with the Thunderbirds!
-- The number "5" is painted upside down on the lead solo pilot's jet. This is so when the lead solo and the opposing solo fly together, the opposing solo can see the number when the lead solo is flying upside down. The Number 5 then appears right side up!
Thats the USAF Thunderbirds for ya!
