Virgil Tracy was a member of International Rescue and the pilot of Thunderbird 2.
During the heat crisis of 2066, he listened in to Jeff Tracy's meeting with World President Nikita Bandranaik from inside Thunderbird 2. After permission was granted, Virgil travelled to Space City in TB 2 to collect a platomic missile, the most powerful bomb in the world, from Commander Zero and transport it back to Tracy Island. It was then fitted to Thunderbird 3 to use against the Sun. When contact was lost with TB 3 when it crash-landed on Venus, Virgil was part of the rescue team. Knowing that the heavy duty aircraft would be needed, Virgil and Tin-Tin fitted booster reactors to TB 2 before he set off. On the journey with Gordon, John on Thunderbird 5 informed them that a meteor shower blocked their current flight plan. Virgil eventually managed to steer clear of the obstacles but the modifications necessary for the ship to be space-worthy ensured it was not before they were hit. They were thrown miles off course and sustained major damage to the winch motors, although Virgil did not discover this until after he and Gordon arrived on Venus and had devised a plan of action with Scott and Brains. Scott insisted that they had to take the risk of too much strain on the outlet compensators causing a blow back. (COMIC: Solar Danger)
