A seasoned Thunderbird pilot sits in the cockpit, ready for another breathtaking performance. From his vantage point, the airshow unfolds around him in a spectacular display of American airpower.
As he looks ahead, he sees the might of the Air Force in action—the hulking presence of a C-17 soaring through the sky, a KC-135 refueling aircraft executing a precision maneuver, and the unmistakable silhouette of an E-3 Sentry AWACS scanning the horizon. The thunderous roar of an Osprey’s rotors fills the air, its dual engines tilting as it defies conventional aircraft movement.
Below, the elite Thunderbirds slice through the sky in perfect formation, their sleek F-16s painting the air with high-speed maneuvers. A glimpse of history emerges as a WWII-era Zero fighter bursts through the smoke, a reminder of the past that paved the way for modern aviation dominance.
This isn’t just an airshow! It’s a testament to power, precision, and legacy, experienced through the eyes of an elite pilot at the heart of it all.

“We want to send an open invitation to the public so they can witness what we do here at Team Tinker,” said Col. Abby Ruscetta, Tinker installation commander. “We want to demonstrate the readiness and strength of American air and space power but also the wonder of aviation.”
Numerous military and civilian air acts and static displays are slated to appear this year with the Thunderbirds making a return to Tinker after six years.
Visitors can expect to see demonstrations including the MV-22 Osprey, C-17 Globemaster III, KC-46A Pegasus, E-3 Sentry, KC-135 Stratotanker and more.
In addition to aerial acts and ground displays, attractions including S.T.E.A.M. City will provide education and entertainment for all ages. Performers and displays are still being added so follow Tinker AFB social media channels for updates as the show gets closer.
