* The Automatic Camera Dectector seems to cause more problems than it solves. Why is it an issue if people take pictures of the outside of the Thunderbirds? It's not like there's a big sign on the back of
** In regards to that last bit, they do all have 'Thunderbird [Number]' or just
*** Presumably there have been descriptions in news articles of the day (hence how they'd know what to look for) and people can recognise technology (or the general idea) from photographs.
*** Artist's impressions perhaps?
* A classic [[You Fail Physics Forever]] moment in both the series and ''
** No, they do not fail physics in this case; that's how acoustic physics really works. If you're flying faster than Mach 1, you're flying faster than the speed of sound, while your sonic boom travels at the speed of sound. ''It can't catch up to you'' and you can't hear it. People sitting in one place can hear it just fine... but the Thunderbirds aren't sitting in one place when they're supersonic.
* Can anyone explain how Thunderbirds 1 & 2 and Fireflash are supposed to move? They are explicitly stated to be <s>nuclear</s> atomic powered. Thing is, nuclear reactors aren't much good for propulsion unless said propulsion is an electric motor (see: ''submarines and ships''). How the heck does a nuclear reactor power what are clearly ''rockets''? More to the point, if your nuclear reactor ''is'' behaving like a rocket then ''something is very'' '''''very''''' ''badly wrong indeed''.
** [
* [[And Another Thing]], paraphrased from somewhere else but I can't remember where I put it: Fireflash can travel at Mach 6, approximately 4,500mph. It is a super-aerodynamic plane. Thunderbird 2 can travel at ''at least'' 5,000mph. It is ''a freaking'' '''''brick.''''' [[Flat What|What.]]
** Both points above: say hello to the [[Applied Phlebotinum]] (which, in this case, is "[[I Love Nuclear Power|atomic power]]". Works for me). And the [[MST3K Mantra]].
* A practical issue. I have no idea whether to file this show under "Western Animation" or "Live Action TV". It seems a bit of a hassle to add the "Puppet Show" tab every time.
** '''MOD''': It's a puppet show. File it under "Puppet Shows", please.
* While
* How does the Hood know about International Rescue before the Fireflash incident, their first ever rescue? And if he found out about it through his mental link with Kyrano, how does he ''not'' know about Tracy Island?
** It's possible that Kyrano has built up resistance to the Hood's mental link, able to keep the really important secrets away from him.
