They and the Blue Angels are spectacular. I directed a video taping of one of their performances at the Air Force Academy graduation a few years ago. Unfortunately, I sent the tape to Combat Camera and they never sent it back.
Great news about Capt. Malachowski. From a purely jaded PR point of view, her good looks certainly won't hurt the image of the team in the media. (NO -- I'm not saying that has anything to do with her selection, simply that she will make great TV and newspaper pictures.)
There was an article in our Delt magazine a year or two ago about a Brother Delt member of the Thunderbirds. I don't know if he is still on the team or has moved on to another assignment by now, though. I think his name is Venable, but I'm not sure.
