A-10 Thunderbolt II Demonstration
A-10 East Coast Demo Team
2009 Joint Services Open House
Andrews AFB, Maryland
Saturday May 16, 2009
IN THIS VIDEO, Captain Johnnie "Dusty" Green puts the A-10 through its paces in a demonstration over Andrews AFB. This is the first A-10 demonstration over Andrews AFB since 2007, when the West Coast Demo Team attended the show. You will also get to see Dale "Snort" Snodgrass take off in a P-51 Mustang as well as Major Dave "Zeke" Skalicky taxi by in the F-22 Raptor.
Like what you've seen? If you are interested in purchasing DVDs of specific aircraft and/or of airshows, interested in anything and everything related to airshows (where the jet teams will show up, all airshow performers, airshow reports from airshows I have attended, previews of airshows I will be attending, etc.), a much more easier to navigate "version" of all of my videos, and/or everything there is related to aviation - including spotting guides to my favorite airports and military bases and aircraft factfiles, please take the time to check out Steve's Airshow World at http://www.stevesairshow.com .
this aircraft may be the slowest but it has the the biggest payload capacity of 48,000lbs and also is basically invincible, In 1991 in desert strom an a-10 was hit in the left wing by a surface to air missle ripping 6-8ft and still managed to fly back to base more than 300miles away. Also the i went to an air show back in 03 and the a-10 took off outtasight then came from behind the crowd but you didn't know he was there till he was already flying over past you. awesome display.
