And I bet this all looks boring as hell from the ground. The hoo-hah about The Thunderbirds displaying at Oshkosh in '14 was massive... and then during their first display, thousands and thousands of the spectators were walking out. It was the most boring display by a professional team that I have ever felt the need to stick-out and watch.
The tightness of the group was ...impressive... by as a result, the dynamics were lame. The result was a poorly choreographed routine, with long gaps crowd centre while the team repositioned - usually at warp-factor-snot, which means everything takes so much longer and over much greater distances.
Give me a safer, more dynamic display. Please.
