The ground is a great danger for the A-10 in light of their CAS role. But that has to be a rush for the pilot to swoop so low.

[[If you’re a grunt and seeing an A-10 Warthog flying over your head its a pretty awesome feeling. ]]

Even if you’re not a grunt- it’s still really awesome! Love the A-10’s and the flying gun ships (can’t remember what they are called now- but they have guns like the A-10- just more of em)

Seen lots of clips of these planes- they truly did strike fear into the enemy- and for good reason- simply awesome weapons

Why didn’t they send A10s to the Mideast to take out moving vehicles instead of using 500# and 2000# bombs?

No lift in that attitude, nothing but thrust keeping you alive. That close to the ground, oh man....!

At Selfridge ANG base near me, they have 21 A-10's. I never knew that until a few months ago when about 5 of them flew over my house headed for the base.........

I mentioned it to a senior friend who I play volleyball with and who happens to be retired from the base and he said they were likely arriving home from an overseas deployment......

Definitely nothing pretty about them, they kind of reminded me of slow, low flying pelicans..........LOL!

... Seriously? This is one of the worst articles I've seen in a while.
In this sighting its a nice day in whatever Star Wars desert town basically in the middle of nowhere that these grunts had to patrol.

Did this guy even graduate 5th grade English class?
