I fly the F-16 very cool stuf..but the A-10 en the P51 are really really sick machines..I will make a kill to fly the p-51 daily

My dads work partner is john green's cousin so up in Ohio we got to meet him and sit in his a-10 warthog (same one in the video), that things a beast so many buttons are in the cockpit, greens warthog demo team's name is the Flying Tigers, the base that the a-10 is located is up in Georgia.

the a-10 is the flying tank

[Larg127]

The P-51 was the original flying tank.

[offroadrc]

yes that's true but i have heard a story about the a-10 that it was shot in irak and had a hole in de wing a still was flying back to the usa

[Larg127]

Well, there were many stories of A-10's flying back to their bases all shot up but not to the US from Iraq.

[offroadrc]

then it was from irak to the bases, but there was a very big hole in his wing, normal planes would haved crashed but the a-10 not, i realy like this plane, It's THE FLYING TANK with a mini gun.

Actually, I believe the P-47 is the one to be called the original flying tank.

[F22RaptorSquadron]

Actually I think the P-47 has more of a right to be called the original flying tank than the P-51. German Fw-190's literally ran out of ammo trying to bring those monsters down.

[Larg127]

Hard to argue with you there. The 47 is an incredible aircraft.
