Love the Hawgs! They were making Rooskie tank crews crap themselves long before they were making terrorists crap themselves.

I didn't make it for the flyover at work Saturday but I hear the parking lot was PACKED with people waving American flags!

Flew right over my house. As I was texting my Dad (Wright Patt retiree) to ask if he heard/saw them he was already texting me with "I love those A-10's!"

I see the boys a couple times a week. My business and the Air Guards property actually touch, I am right next door.

There have been times I am in the back lot and all of a sudden five of them come right over the trees so low I swear I could see the color of the pilots eyes.

'Merica = A10! We grew up with them flying out of Grissom. Tree top runs up our creek were quite often. Or strafing combines in the fall. Too cool.

The F-4s out of the Louisville ANG unit used to come smokin across the farm. Thought the hay baler was flyin apart a few times.

We had a single A10 fly over our house Sunday morning, wasn’t much above the tree level. The whole family was outside doing yard work and the two kids got pretty excited.

They flew directly over my house and it was great, the whole family was out waving. I guess I'm jaded...or just privileged but without the BRRRRRRT! It's just not the same.

 

[WanderingSol07]

The two flew directly overhead at about 1500' as my wife and I were out for our daily walk in West Lafayette.

At my dad's old place just north of the Red River in Oklahoma you could hear prop engine trainers practicing dog fighting for hours every day, I believe they were T6 Texans. He wasn't very far (as the Air Force Trainer flies) From Shepard Air Base in Wichita Falls.

Not one of theirs, I believe they were the 363rd FTS.

That T-6 Texan II photo is straight from the Sherpard AFB photo library.

Had a relative go through ENJJPT (European NATO Joint Jet Pilot Training) there learning first in the T-6, then the T-38. Graduates of that program moved on to F-22, F-16, F-15, A-10 and other jet powered aircraft. My relative went on to the F-16 and then his current office, the F-35.

For out and out close air support it is hard to beat the A-10 with it's extended loiter time and massive armament capability.

Isn't it strange how mad liberals are that these flyovers are happening??? LOL

Sorry I was thinking the 558th was out of Austin or San Antone, somewhere further south in Texas.

Blue Angels today around 2 pm. For some reason they're starting in Beech Grove.

I hope I get to see them. Not sure if I will or not, but I just set a reminder on my work calendar so I'd remember to start looking a little before 2.

It's funny that they're flying over our old location in "the Grove" but we won't be able to see them from our current location because we're too far south of the loop. They'll probably be visible but very small. We'll see them in Pensacola during one of their practice sessions later this year if we're ever allowed to travel again.

I'm just west of 31 and 465 so I don't know if I'll be able to see them above the tree line or not. Guess it depends on how high they're flying.
