On any other fighter, sitting on the main wheel would probably get you dirty trousrers - probably not the case with the Thunderbirds :-)

Its notoriously difficult to identify individual aircraft in the team when they are on the display circuit due to the serial not being carried externally. Allegedly, the team numbers are on stickers which are easily changed as well. Hence, I'll refer to this one as Thunderbird 6.

T-bird Thunderbird 4 (either 86-0039 or 86-0041) taxies back in following their display. If they'd have asked, I'd have taken the spare seat and provided some useful ballast!

Thunderbird 5 taxies back in following the display, Note that the team number on the air intake is upside down - position 5 is one of the ones that spends a good amount of their time inverted in the display.

Keeping the nose high - probably more to show off than reduce wear and tear on the brakes :-)

Seen shortly after arrival, the pilot is busy buttoning up the jet. Interesting to see the number of little cubby holes they have!
