If you go to the Virtual Thunderbirds web site there's something about that in their forums. If I remember correctly it has to do with the #5 solo being inverted during all most all of the maneouvers during their show. But you can always check that out for your self. Hope that helps
By the way, Awsome video!!!!

I think they're playin a sick joke on him... I bet you they all fly inverted and he's the only one flying normal. They're just messin with his head.

Lol! That's funny!

Amazing video. As usual, the level of skill in their formation flying surpasses perfection. Unfortunately, I hated the music. I loved the music from the 2005 trailer and the way it played a part in the editing of the movie. Making the music an integral part of the movie and not just a background filler is always a high priority. I'm pretty sure I've heard some of the music from this year's trailer during a tv show (Babylon 5 maybe??? Not sure...). Anyways, I loved the flying demo, and the widescreen high-def format is definitely nice, so it's still a winner. Can't wait for the real deal.

Talking about the 2005 trailer... Why is there already a 2006 promo trailer while the 2005 show isn't online yet?
Never the less, congratulations on the flying.

The 2005 show IS out, and has been for some time. You can download it from their website...

Really?
When I have a look at their website, which I believe is this one I only see the "1st official movie", the "2005 trailer" and the "Airshow promo 2006" in Library - Movies.
If this isn't the official site (which I doubt) can someone please link me to the right page, and to the page where the 2005 show can be found?
Thanks.

Hey guys... Thanks for the compliments on the movie. The 2005 movie is not gone, it has just evolved into the 2006 airshow movie. Due to some team changes that have occured at the end of last year and the beginning of this year, there needed to be some changes made. For our 2006 movie, we are using footage taken from the 2005 team and the 2006 team. Changes in the game have also allowed us to make changes in the way we fly, even closer and tighter then before. This trailer has some of that footage in it. You will be amazed when this comes out. We are basically almost done shooting. LD has been frapping his eyes out. The movie will be hands down the best you have ever seen. There will be music, narration and of course awesome flying. Stay tuned. Thanks again for the compliments.
