USAF Thunderbirds Departing @ Toronto Pearson Int’l September 4, 2018Hello everyone! Welcome to this video!

Here are the United States Air Force Thunderbirds departing back to Nellis Air Force Base from Toronto Pearson Int’l.

The first part of the video shows us TBIRD14, which was the USAF C-17A Globemaster III, this time a Travis AFB bird, that showed up Monday afternoon to pick up the Thunderbirds’ gear and fly it back to Nellis back. Then the next part is Tuesday morning where all eight of the Thunderbirds’ F-16’s took off of RWY 06L and headed straight to Nellis. They told ATC that they weren’t planning any passes since they had two mid-air refuels to do on their way to Nellis. The Globemaster completes the third part of the video, who agreed to buzz the Tower after his RWY 23 departure giving us an amazing show to conclude with!
