Some of the videos are being posted on YouTube from VFAT 2015. Just search for VFAT 2015 and you can see what amazing things these guys were doing.

Here is one especially good but it wasn't their display routine. This is an edited demo reel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wifFXlTNzCM

But there is another airshow coming up this weekend too. There are more of these than I ever knew about!

The routines I saw in the VFAT displays were all in DCS (maybe some were FSX but I didn't see any) but the FSX Thunderbirds will probably be in FSX. I was looking at some of the various team websites and a number say to hit them up for a ride-along during a practice. All of the visuals of VR with none of the concentration or required skill! I'm going to do it. And film the routines from inside.

But check these out if you are of a mind. Search for VFAT 2015 on YouTube. From my own experience, what these guys all do and make look so easy is anything but easy. And the visuals are phenomenal in VR. Having these planes just a matter of feet or even inches away looking all big and bad is wild. Only thing is that at least in FSX, to see them in their planes, you will need that plane in your own stable. A 400 knot Cessna 150 is a bit weird...
