JayCee was at Lafayette Regional Airport this afternoon when the Thunderbirds arrived. Here is a montage of the footage he shot of the Thunderbirds buzzing the airport!
If you notice, the last few minutes of the raw footage features Tracy Wirtz of KATC TV3 getting her safety equipment briefing by the United States Air Force.... she was getting ready for her Media Ride in an F-16 Thunderbird!!
