Copy of a recent Post on "Gaining a R.A.F. Pilot's Brevet in WWII"
Heads up !
Click on A-10 at work....with music and follow the link - you won't be disappointed !
I'd always thought the Giant Warthog to be a heavy, ponderous sort of thing, but here's this chap chucking it around like a Spitfire. Obviously a COIN aircraft par excellence, and exactly what I would think is needed in Irak/Syria now.
How could they think of retiring it in today's circumstances ? Wish I was 70 years younger and had one of these to fly.
Only cavil: could we see less of the pilot and the tail, and more of the front panel and the view ahead, please ?
Thanks, West Coast !

PS: clunckdriver,
With you 100% ! Every bit as bad over here ! Why, oh why do they do it ? Has the Musician's Union got a stranglehold on the BBC etc , or something ?
Can somebody form a Society for the Protection of Listeners/Viewers ? Would do it myself, but won't be around much longer.
