A few shots that were taken today either side the trip to the range, images to follow. Photobucket is playing up so sorry about the various sizes to the images.

Nice Pictures!

But Man, your missing the picture of the \"Great 80-0166\" [shock]

If the \"Old Veteran\" is there can you get a shot of her please?
1 of the 1st \"Hawg's to go Down Town\" during Desert Storm in a 4 ship group to take out AAA on top of Buildings on the outskirts of Baghdad in Feb of 1991 using the GAU!

ROCK ON!

Surprised Capt. Eikner let 273 on the ramp..mismatched leading edges, something that appears to be DIRT on the left fuselage, a nose that looks like it had an encounter or two with a refueling boom. A-10's aren't supposed to look like that, are they?

Spoke to one of the maintainers today and he said that it was a result of a tankers boom over the Med during their recent deployment transit.

I think the 442nd did well to provide extra frames to fly, just a shame so many had to cancel.

Neil You Rock lad! Great work! Seeing it is almost as good as being there. Keep up the great work.

BTW would love to sit and talk photography. You ever find yourself out this neck of the woods, just drop me a line, the coffee's always on.
