Two A-10 (Warthogs) in formation to Honor Veterans at the Kansas University and Kansas State University Football Game
These Air Force A-10s flew over the football stadium right at the conclusion of our National Anthem. Both pilots were Kansas University graduates.

Did you forget to attach a photo. BTW, how do you like my Barn Owl in my Avatar?

Very nice.
I had a spec. writer who was an A-10 pilot while in the AF.
The AF pilots that the ground pounders love!

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.
Architect1776, Thanks for your kind review. Onward into Nov.
UTMike, You are right about that! Thanks for the look.
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.
