ThunderBirds at Colorado Springs (photos) Wow the US Air force Thunderbirds are in Colorado Springs and so am I. Today they were out flying and practicing so I thought it would be fun to share some action photo's :thumbsup: They are fast some of the photo's I was at 300mm lens setting. https://montecarloforum.com/forum/at...1&d=1495513894 https://montecarloforum.com/forum/at...1&d=1495513894 https://montecarloforum.com/forum/at...1&d=1495513894 https://montecarloforum.com/forum/at...1&d=1495513894 https://montecarloforum.com/forum/at...1&d=1495513894 https://montecarloforum.com/forum/at...1&d=1495513727 |
It's so impressive that the Air Force Thunderbirds have been flying the F-16 for decades now, and they still look so cool and fly so well.
:flag: It used to be, back in the '50s and '60s, that the team went thru a whole bunch of different fighter jets. |

I remember the Super Sabre and the F-4 Phantom, I saw them once in the T-38 talon this is the one that 4 of them Crashed in 1982 and I think it was a year or longer before they got F-16's and they have been on them since. Pretty neat they were buzzin:rotfl: the house when my daughter lives. :congrats: :thumbsup: |
Excellent photos you have for yourself. Jealous, wonderful opportunity.
You did start having flash backs and start digging a fighting position to take cover in did you? |

The thought crossed my mind but these planes are unarmed, besides they would still blow you over if they had a mind too? :rotfl: I just happened to be there visiting my daughter and family, in the Springs and it is always great picture territory. :thumbsup: |
