....finally found the A-10 I was looking for....and stationed with at England AFB (now Alexandria Int'l) Louisiana. I delivered munitions to this plane on more than a few dozen occasions.
Tail# 80-209 was delivered when we converted form A-7s and was assigned to the 75th TFS. The wing at England was the 23rd TFW which was a direct 'descendant' of the 23rd AVG! Hence the continuation of the "Flying Tigers" paint theme.
It is soooooooooo cool to have a flightsim craft that I have some history with!

It's sorta like the B-52. Excellent design, timeless purpose, and with proper TLC it'll last as long as you want it to!
It was very cool to be able to be associated with these fine aircraft!

I saw that on "The world's deadliest aircraft" television show.
Totally wicked and packs a heck of a punch.
The mind is like a parachute...it only works when it's open.
