    My boy loves the A10, calls it his plane.

    Little does he know that he is alive only because of one of those planes and its driver.

    Nothing will ever be enough to express the gratitude many of us on the ground have for you and your cohorts. Thank you.

    ^ Hell yea, that's a great way to give back @88nitro305 Im sure that would be a cool feeling taking off in that beast. maybe not the 'wow' factor of a jet, but any flying is cool in my book.

    Thank you Corprin for sharing. Experiences like that keep us fired up knowing we can have an impact for good on the battlefield.

    It’s a privelege to serve, and awesome to be a small link in the chain of the mighty Hawg legacy.

    ATTACK!

    Hey I have a friend from there! Looks like a beautiful place.
    Dang! I did 8.1 this weekend from NW Arkansas to the great town of Lubbock, TX. :tumbleweed: Flew down to go to the Rattlesnake Roundup with some friends and ended up with a 20kt headwind going down and a 15kt headwind on the way back. Sometimes you just can't win! Got to shoot the RNAV into Arkansas this afternoon though, so that was fun.

    I think my right fuel gauge is sticking because it shows full until it jumps down to 1/4 remaining :D I also think my oil temp is sticking because there's no way it should have been in the low end of the green after sitting outside all night....Maybe time for an engine monitor. Other than that the Cardinal ran like a top! 130kts true at 7000'

    did an 11.2 last week in Ellie the 206 and then Katrina the P210... 206 is great... P210 still giving me problems... new alternator installed and departed KFTW... 2 hours outside of Tucson the alternator failed again... gotta be an electrical short or something in the plane...

    Never landed by light gun before so I can cross that off the list... :goingcrazy:

    Not even. I lost coms not too long ago... just googled the towers phone number and called them through my headset. They were stoked because this light gun signals are basically useless if it’s daylight out. Can’t see shit haha
