Description

This is a rework and resubmit from a capture of 2006. The Thunderbird are put on hold due to the budget cuts of the sequestration. Their last show at Laughlin AFB was 2006. Major Samantha Week was their top gun flying upside down on the top and Major T. D. Dalton on the bottom at 600 MPH. MT
