Default RE: Not sure where to post - THUNDERBIRD 6 DOWN

Can't find a thing on any of the online news services. Found a short blurb on the Air Force Times Web site: http://www.airforcetimes.com/story.p...25-2216271.php Doesn't say anything new.

This is from the Thunderbirds web site:

"Following the Diamond, the Lead Solo, Maj. Todd Canterbury, clears the runway and snaps an immediate 360-degree aileron roll. Finally, the Opposing Solo, Capt. Chris Stricklin, powers his aircraft nearly straight up; reversing direction, he flies back past the crowd all within the length of the runway in a maneuver called the Split-S."
