Thunder Alley at Sun 'n Fun 2017
Thunder Alley is SUN ‘n FUN’s showcase area dedicated to highlighting jet aircraft and educating people about their origins, use, and impact on aviation technology. Visitors can get an up close and personal view of these iconic war machines, plus a daily walk-around hosted by the pilots who fly them.
Some of the jets scheduled for display include the Northrop F-5 Tiger II, British Aerospace Sea Harrier, Dassault/Dornier Alpha, Aero Vodochody L-39 Albatros, and a very rare Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-23!
The audience follows the speaker around the aircraft as he describes the systems and role it held in history, and questions and interaction are welcome and encouraged! Several aircraft will offer cockpit tours, and visitors will also get to see many of these aircraft in flight in a daily showcase.
