USAF Thunderbirds Major Matt Kimmel (#5 Lead Solo) and Major Michelle Curran (#6 Opposing Solo) perform Reflection Pitch/Reflection Pass (No Pitch) in their F-16C 'Falcons.' <-

Some of their maneuvers include both solo aircraft at once, such as opposing passes (passing in close proximity to each other) and mirror formations (two aircraft being flown back-to-back in the calypso pass or belly-to-belly). In mirror formations, one Thunderbird must be inverted, and it is always number 5. In fact, the number 5 on this aircraft is painted upside-down, and thus appears right-side-up for much of the routine. There is also an extra amount of humor regarding the inverted performance of Thunderbird 5: the pilots all wear tailored flight suits with their name and jet number embroidered on the left breast. The suit for the pilot of the number 5 airplane has the number sewn upside-down. -[wiki]
