Classic American Route from Chicago to Los Angeles
Sorry, no slots available for 2009
It is impossible for us to establish a firm price more then about six
months in advance of the ride, because of international exchange rate
fluctuation.
As a general rule you can expect the cost of the ride to be
approximately $5,000 for a rider and $2,500 for a passenger sharing
accommodations with the rider.
Currently, we regret that there are no slots available for either
Thunder in the Alps or Italian Thunder for 2009.
If you would like to have your name placed on our e-mail list we would
be happy to send you an e-mail as soon as the schedule is established
for 2010.

In the spring of 1968 a group of U.S. Marines was ambushed and pinned
down in a river bed by an enemy force on a hill above. Another
branch of service sent two aircraft to assist. Both dropped
ordinance from about 2500 feet and missed the enemy hill entirely.
The two aircraft were so high that the enemy did not even bother to
shoot at them. The failure of the air assault left the Marines
only one option.
The Marines were staging their gear and fixing bayonets in preparation
for a frontal uphill assault against a dug in enemy force. A
passing Marine Corps aircraft heard the radio traffic and called to see
if he could help. That aircraft approached low and fast into the
enemy small arms fire and in one run destroyed the enemy position,
making the bayonet assault unnecessary. If you were an aircrew
member of that aircraft, your ride is free and the owner of
Ultimate Thunder
will carry your bags and buy your drinks.
