Played golf at Indian Lake Estates in Central Florida yesterday.
Aircraft bombing range, used by Navy and Air force, is located just a couple of miles away from the course.
2 A-10’s were in action yesterday...AWESOME!
Ha ha... I played that swampy cow-pasture a year or two ago. Course was dead empty but the attractive middle-aged lady in the pro-shop was redeeming.
We had reached top of the Flight plan at probably 20K and the Capt gets on the PA I figured it was the announcement to start descent but instead and Capt says if anybody is interested there's 2 TX ANG A-10 Warthogs coming up on the left side of Our A/C and the Crews all just happened to know each other from USAF Service. We're all waving, thumbs up & even a few Phones snapping away. They respond with a few Wing Wags back at Us. There were PAX from across the aisle coming over too. I thought that was great way to start a Monday
My Fiance asked if that happened all the time ? “I said I wish !”
that was a 1st for Me and I've been flying for about 35 - 40 years .
