Back in the 80's I used to hang out on the Elk River (Chesapeake Bay) and these jocks would drive their A10's down the river so low that you could see them smile and wave as they went by on their way to do training runs at Aberdeen proving grounds. We would be sitting on the boat with our girls in bikini's drinking beer and then BAM a flight of two A10s would come low and slow right by us. Had to be no higher than 100 feet. They would give us a wing wag and slide on down the river.
judging by the size of the telephone polls and aircraft size just before it passes, I estimate at least 75 feet of clearance, a huge amount compared to the airforce flyby /watch?v=Wa_KrNNebzU&feature=related
One of these flew over my school last week, I just look out the window during my 5th period and catch a 'Hog cruising slow and low. Wasn't even a special occasion, I guess the pilot just decided to make my day.

Taliban & Al-Qaeda Warriors World's Best. The West has killed less than 500 known Taliban & Al-Qaeda. The rest had to be called "Suspected Militants". There are 6,103 US KIAs. Al-Qaeda gets credit for the 2,900+ killed on 9/11. The US didn't kill one of the 19 Al-Qaeda Warriors who invaded the US, not with stealth bombers, F-16 fighter jets, drones, cruise missiles, but with $0.79 box cutters. US cost for Wars $1 trillion, 214 billion+. The Pentagon & CIA paid Taliban & Al-Qaeda's cost.
@BobbyWarrenMiller LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL the Taliban run around with no training, wielding 70 year old weapons, shooting at shit with no accuracy. The numbers you gave are bull shit. 500 Taliban dead? LO FUCKING L we killed TENS OF THOUSANDS of your rag-headed, hell-bound, sand niggers! You are just pathetic!
@94794 Well funny, it's impossible to know the exact amount because our soldiers don't give a shit about how many they kill, and your numbers are wrong because an estimated 38,000 Taliban have been killed or captured, while 1,500 Americans have been killed.
Wow, almost 1.3 million watches...I shot that video standing at the end of the runway at Bagram AB in (March I think) 2006. Gave it to one A-10 maintainer and it found its way all over. Glad people enjoyed it. Maybe someday I'll post the lengthened version:-)
As a kid, i used to live under the flight path of A10’s
Twice a week two of them would gracefully fly over at altitude unarmed, in a staggered formation, i swear it must have taken them about 5 minutes to pass over. wow I'll never forget that sound or sight. :)
The A10’s looked like they were flying over from Germany, or just on test flights
it’s a shame they never came over in practise missions, low like the Tornados did... whoosh, vhoomph, tree tops gone, I remember a neighbour running out covered in soot from his fire lol
I think the A10 is one of the best looking aircraft ever made, up there with the Spitfire, Me109, P51, B17, F16
@fi5mvKsW3M cousin of mine told me that when he was in the canadian army, his armored platoon expended all their ammo on a dummy A-10, and missed every shot. no surprise you would be in deep trouble

ok, so i was FAC for my company and have directed a lot of airstrikes, with many coalition airforces. i've always given correct grids, i've painted the target correctly. and yet american pilots have still missed by a whole fucking grid square. it never happened with the RAF, the french, the aussies, and the canadians.... am i missing something here?????
@smudger746 NEVER happened with the British ? Can't wait for the pilot come back at that one. I'm not a pilot but I know plenty of Australian Soldiers. British fuck ups are legendary.

@smudger746 Hot off the internet. March 29 2011. British spent $2M to compensate Afghan victims
Payments in 951 cases for civilian death, injury, damage caused by military action......the smallest payout was $845 to a family whose daughter was killed in a rocket attack in the Nad-e-Ali district of the southern Helmand province. The highest was $7,791 for each victim killed in air strikes involving Hellfire missiles. No, the brits don't fuck up now do they ?
@smudger746 : September 26, 2006 Newspaper reports described a leaked email from a British Major serving in Afghanistan: "Twice I have had Harriers in support when c/s on the ground have been in heavy contact, on one occasion trying to break clean. A female harrier pilot 'couldn't identify the target', fired 2 phosphorous rockets that just missed our own compound so that we thought they were incoming RPGs and then strafed our perimeter missing the enemy by 200 metres.
That is wise Sir, but unfortunately congress has passed legislation that mandates that women and fags ARE effective warriors. And if they aren't...and we lose fire fights and battles because of their presence we can charge the enemy with sexual harassment and have the outcome of said battles overturned in court..it makes perfect sense to the Liberal mind.

Look it up: "The Major's Email: British Close-Air Support in Afghanistan Criticized" Yep mR ex British soldier - YOU ARE MISSING SOMETHING.

@smudger746 During WW2 HMS Sheffield was sank by the Fleet Air Arm who had mistaken it for the Bismarck....the first two aerial victories by a Supermarine Spitfire were, you guessed it, Hawker Hurricanes....on June 6,1982 HMS Cardiff blew a Gazelle helicopter out of the sky, killing all four men aboard...there was the case of RAF planes attacking ships in a harbor that were full of Russian POWs and Jews, killing thousands. British arrogance really makes me sick sometimes.

@way2go777 oh trust me i do know what i am talking about. i served 13 years in tthe british army and seen many incidents of american forces shooting first and asking questions later. i've seen pilots getting CAS missions horribly wrong. desert storm 1991. an A 10 pilot blew up 2 british warrior armoured personell carriers killing 13 soldiers. operation telic 2003, iraq again. an A10 pilot blew up 2 scimitar armoured cars of the british army killing 3 and wounding 3. need i go on?
@smudger746 With Close air support it’s always better to have a spotter on the ground, a Joint Tactical Air Controller (JTAC), who can direct you to the target with precision. We often (but not always) used special forces to direct air strikes. Also surveillance aircraft / drones could relay ground targets to us. Their sensors went through cloud, dust etc. The A10's imaging systems could identify targets without JTAC guidance - but there’s no substitute for those guys.
@smudger746 Go on all you like. No A10 pilot flies alone. He’s got dozens of personnel helping the mission. JTAC, Weapons Handlers, Jammers, AWACs etc. In a non perfect world things can and do go wrong. Precision strikes in urban areas was tricky and there was the risk of collateral damage (friendly fire). Sorry if you lost buddies. I did too. The thought that we may have killed innocents always hung heavy. But that's war! Unless you've flown CAS (which I doubt) you have NO idea.
@smudger746 I don't know the circumstances of the desert storm incident as I wasn't n the Air Force then, Re: the incident in 2003 I was told something about the target being incorrectly lit . if you were ground forces / special forces you would know the inherent difficulties there. Put yourself in the pilot's seat just for a minute. A target is tasked, the coordinates are given and you are given a 'go'. And you get fired upon inbound. What do you do? You obey your orders!
@smudger746 Oh dear - did the Brits get some guys creamed? Ever heard of Gallipoli where 8000 Australian troops were led to the slaughter by coward pommie bastards ? It was Anzac Day yesterday where we remember our fallen, you pious piece of british shit. So the Americans accidentlaly blew up some british soldiers. It happens in war you know. Nobody is perfect. You as a brit should know that. If you want to talk about how incredibly efficient the British Army is........

one time Ft. Indiantown gap on weekend warrior stuff as radioman i had a couple of these looking for me as practice. i watched them on a ridge top miles across a valley then they disappeared. I was standing on a ridge top looking down a half mile of pipe line to the valley when one of these guys came down the valley cutting the tops of trees off, turned into the pipe line and came up the mountain 6 feet off the ground at 300mph. I looked in the front window at him from laying on the ground.
Thats is in Tucson, Arizona because I lived there most of my life and A-10 fighter jets fly in the morning for flight training.

@smudger746 With Close air support it’s always better to have a spotter on the ground, a Joint Tactical Air Controller (JTAC), who can direct you to the target with precision. We often (but not always) used special forces to direct air strikes. Also surveillance aircraft / drones could relay ground targets to us. Their sensors went through cloud, dust etc. The A10's imaging systems could identify targets without JTAC guidance - but there’s no substitute for those guys.

@smudger746 Go on all you like. No A10 pilot flies alone. He’s got dozens of personnel helping the mission. JTAC, Weapons Handlers, Jammers, AWACs etc. In a non perfect world things can and do go wrong. Precision strikes in urban areas was tricky and there was the risk of collateral damage (friendly fire). Sorry if you lost buddies. I did too. The thought that we may have killed innocents always hung heavy. But that's war! Unless you've flown CAS (which I doubt) you have NO idea.

@smudger746 I don't know the circumstances of the desert storm incident as I wasn't n the Air Force then, Re: the incident in 2003 I was told something about the target being incorrectly lit . if you were ground forces / special forces you would know the inherent difficulties there. Put yourself in the pilot's seat just for a minute. A target is tasked, the coordinates are given and you are given a 'go'. And you get fired upon inbound. What do you do? You obey your orders!

@smudger746 Oh dear - did the Brits get some guys creamed? Ever heard of Gallipoli where 8000 Australian troops were led to the slaughter by coward pommie bastards ? It was Anzac Day yesterday where we remember our fallen, you pious piece of british shit. So the Americans accidentlaly blew up some british soldiers. It happens in war you know. Nobody is perfect. You as a brit should know that. If you want to talk about how incredibly efficient the British Army is........

@restlessgun
....please use your spell check, and if you are going to use the English Language to COMMUNICATE I suggest you look into some on-line English classes to brush-up on you skills.
I only suggest this, because I understand your point of view, but you nullify it with the sketchy English (as a language) that you write.
Good-Luck restlessgun

one time Ft. Indiantown gap on weekend warrior stuff as radioman i had a couple of these looking for me as practice. i watched them on a ridge top miles across a valley then they disappeared. I was standing on a ridge top looking down a half mile of pipe line to the valley when one of these guys came down the valley cutting the tops of trees off, turned into the pipe line and came up the mountain 6 feet off the ground at 300mph. I looked in the front window at him from laying on the ground.

The A-10's are not planes with weapons. A-10's are a gun with an airplane built around it.
