Description
Two F-16s making a low altitude fly-by. Kansas City August 24, 2008.
If you open this up to a full-size view, I have a little trivia for you. Look under the leading edge of the wing on the top plane. See the number 6 painted on the side of the engine air intake? Now, look down at the same location on the inverted plane below. See the number 5? These two planes fly all the solo performances. 5 is always the inverted guy...therefore his/her number is permanently painted "upside down".
One of the six Thunderbird pilots is a lady Major. She is either 5 or 6...can't remember which. How about that ladies?
Hope you like these aerial shots...I'll be slipping in more from time to time :-)
