Wings restoration volunteers are racing to bring our newly acquired Fighting Falcon back to its Thunderbirds livery in time for its official debut at the 2026 Spreading Wings Gala on October 3rd.
This aircraft has served as a weapons systems test bed, aggressor trainer, Air Force Thunderbirds and maintenance trainer. Now, it has a new mission, preserving history and inspiring the next generation.
Be there for the big reveal at this year’s Spreading Wings Gala, celebrating the legacy of the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds and future aerospace leaders.
