We’re excited to announce our next stop on the 2025 virtual airshow tour: Power in the Pines, happening at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst in Wrightstown, New Jersey! This performance lines up with the real-world show, so expect a full day of aviation action and tight formation flying as we bring the Thunderbirds VO to the digital skies.

Event Details:
Date: Saturday, May 17, 2025
Time: 1600Z to 2040Z (12:00 PM – 4:40 PM Eastern)
Server: Casual

We’ve got a full demo planned, including signature maneuvers, solos, and a showline performance that’s been dialed in through hours of training. Whether you’re flying or spectating, this is going to be a fun one.

Interested in performing?
We’re looking for demo teams, military displays, or solo acts to round out the show lineup. If you want in, shoot a message to @Humanguy and we’ll get you on the schedule.

Come join us for a day of fast jets, low passes, and loud engines over New Jersey!

Note: This event is organized by the Thunderbirds Virtual Organization and is not affiliated with the real Power in the Pines Air Show, Joint Base MDL, or the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds.

Also REMINDER:
If you do not have permission to perform in the show please remain on the ramp to spectate.

Did you mean to post this in your own event topic? This is @Humanguy’s event

7

Nope. Because it’s the same event and we will allow spectators as long as they don’t cause chaos

8

If this is the same event then there shouldn’t be two topics for it

He’s a member of the VO. I figured it was a given not to just randomly show up, but it never hurts to be clear.

Yes
That exactly, we don’t want random people on the runway during our performance or show bombing us. That’s why we kindly asked

@Humanguy want me to do a quick survey flight for us?

13

Oh yeah, don’t worry, I totally get your reasoning, I was just confused because I saw two different events and didn’t realize that they were the same and that you were a part of the VO. Good luck, I hope to watch y’all do well! And maybe I just might get an act together :shushing_face: :eyes:
