Entire USAF Thunderbirds Fleet Departs at Same Time (ATC Included)

All eight F-16's of the United States Air Force (USAF) Thunderbirds fleet depart the Daytona Beach Int'l Airport (KDAB) in sequence following their flyover performance of the NASCAR Daytona 500 race. The fleet consists of six Lockheed Martin F-16C Fighting Falcons (single-seater) and two F-16D variants (two-seater) all of which are seen in this video. They depart runway 25R in two separate waves with about 8 seconds of separation between each aircraft in the formation. ATC included with the lead aircraft using a "Thunderbird 1" callsign. Thanks for watching!
