I had a model of an A-10 hanging in my room when I was a kid. Always loved that plane. The pic next to the VW is terrific. Really puts it in perspective!

I remember seeing something on the design/engineering of the whole platform. The boiled down version is that they essentially designed the plane around the gun.

This past weekend was the local air show, so I did what any other sane person would do on a hot humid day, hang out on asphalt with many thousands of people. As I was walking around looking at some of the static displays between the shows, I remembered this thread. I couldn't remember all the pictures linked. Turns out I took pretty much the same ones. A bit out of focus, but it looked good when I took it. Must've been the heat.   A B52 I shot in passing on my way out of the show.  And I see these and others regularly along with plenty of F-16 living near a couple of air bases.  Photobucket seems to have derotated that I rotated my pictures, and I don't feel like messing with them anymore, so turn your head sideways. |
