Netflix has added Air Force Elite: Thunderbirds, a documentary that promises, for the first time ever, to go inside the cockpit of the US Air Force's legendary flight Squadron, The Thunderbirds.
The 90-minute film goes behind the scenes on the 2023 team as the "rock stars of the air show world" go through gruelling training as they prepare to put on unforgettable aerial performances flying F-16 Fighting Falcons. They must prove they can pull off incredible aerial maneuvers like the "Diamond Pass in Review," which sees them fly in tight formation just inches apart. "Six jets flying 18 inches apart nearly at the speed of sound," says one of the pilots in the trailer.
