These Air Force A-10s flew over the football stadium right at the conclusion of our National Anthem. Both pilots were Kansas University graduates.

I still remember the images of what they did to the retreating Iraqi army on that single road from Kuwait to Baghdad...tore 'em up.

I watched it on TNN - that long ago. Also the missile flying through the bunker "window".

They should be building a few hundred brand new A-10s rather than a few dozen F whatevers for the same money. The A-10 does the job for the ground troops. That's what matters. The only thing that could make this shot any better is if there'd been 3 or 4 or 5 in the flight.

BudsOwl, Think if you check again you will see the photo. If not, please let me know and I will repost. Would appreciate more info on your Barn Owl.

flip1948, Think the A-10 was called a "tank buster". Best to you and yours.

LDB415, I'm just glad we have the pilots who can make it all work when ordered to do so.
