It’s nearly September and that means that Thunderbirds Day is coming up! Every year, on 30th September, Thunderbirds Day marks the anniversary of the first date that Thunderbirds aired in the UK in 1965. It is a day to celebrate the classic Thunderbirds series and its new-generation revival Thunderbirds Are Go.
The Thunderbirds have the privilege and responsibility to perform for people all around the world, displaying the pride, precision and professionalism of American Airmen. Whenever disaster strikes, International Rescue answers the call! From their hidden island base in the south Pacific, the five Tracy brothers pilot remarkable, cutting-edge Thunderbird vehicles from the depths of the oceans to the highest reaches of space – all for one purpose: to help others in need. – The commander of Air Combat Command, Gen. Kelly, has officially approved a one-year extension for the 2019 – 2020 officers to remain on the United States Air Force Thunderbirds for the 2021.
Our 2019 line-up of activity for Thunderbirds Day has something for everyone, so join in and celebrate this FAB franchise with us!
