The Virtual Thunderbirds, LLC is a fan based group, widely recognized on the net as the virtual equivalent of the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds. We are the original and first team to reenact the Thunderbirds in any flight simulator and the first team to ever perform formation aerobatics online as the United States Air Demonstration Squadron.

Our mission is to reenact the aerial demonstration of the USAF Thunderbirds, past and present. This includes adhering to the real world radio calls, maneuver parameters and procedures, professionalism, and unbelievable attention to detail, a trademark the USAF Thunderbirds have been known for throughout its history since 1953.

Part of our organization is our demo team, consisting of a group of pilots using the best equipment and software available in flight simulation to perform the aerial demo as accurately as possible. This includes adhering to the real world radio calls, maneuver parameters and procedures, professionalism, and unbelievable attention to detail, a trademark the USAF Thunderbirds are renowned for.

Many of the Virtual Thunderbird pilots are real world aviators with several thousand hours of real world flying experience, however, this is not a requirement to become part of the Virtual Thunderbirds. We encourage everyone with a passion for flying and what we do to tryout for the team.
