Great pics!

I have only been to the San Diego shows. Looking forward to an AF show one day.

Thanks for the pics!! When I was a kid, my dad was stationed at the Air Force Academy and I loved watching the Thunderbirds practice. This brings back good memories.

"Your only truly tough if you can crew the BUFF"

BUFF- Big, Ugly, Flying, F*%#er.

B-52, Specializing in mass urban renewal and population control since 1956.

I used to crew them a lifetime ago, G models not that fancy H model

Nice photos OLS

Nice shot of the "Tweety Bird" (T-33)! Is that a genuine Thunderbirds plane or a privately owned warbird?

hotreds · 05-07-2009, 05:28 PM

That is a privately owned T-33.
