F-16 Fighting Falcon The Thunderbirds performing the crossover break
Since 1953, they have flown in front of more than 300 million people. Since 15 February 1974 the Thunderbirds have been a component of the 57th Wing at Nellis AFB. In addition to their air demonstration responsibilities, the Thunderbirds are part of the USAF combat force and if required, can be rapidly integrated into an operational fighter unit. As the squadron performs no more than 88 air demonstrations each year, replacements must be trained for about half of the team each year, in order to provide a constant mix of experience. Officers serve a two-year assignment with the squadron, while enlisted personnel serve three to four years. It is also one of the oldest squadrons in the Air Force, its origins dating to the organization of the 30th Aero Squadron, formed at Kelly Field, Texas, on 13 June 1917. The Thunderbirds Squadron is a named USAF squadron, meaning it does not carry a numerical designation. The squadron's name is taken from the legendary creature that appears in the mythologies of several indigenous North American cultures. The Thunderbirds Squadron tours the United States and much of the world, performing aerobatic formation and solo flying in specially marked aircraft. Created 70 years ago in 1953, the USAF Thunderbirds are the third-oldest formal flying aerobatic team (under the same name) in the world, after the French Air Force Patrouille de France formed in 1931 and the United States Navy Blue Angels formed in 1946. The Thunderbirds are assigned to the 57th Wing, and are based at Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada.
