    Hi Guys, long time no see. I hope you are both well.

    An A10 Warthog, A steerman I think and an arresting picture of Santa.:D

    CeeBee, I think those pictures are of very beautiful women, beautifully photographed.:D

    When the Air Force was going to ditch the A-10, the Army/Marines showed interst. The Air Force decided they would keep the A-10 and renamed it the Thunderbolt. Not sure on the bi-plane.

    I thought it was a thunderbolt any way ? The warthog was just a nick name 'cos it is so ugly. I was trying to find a picture of one painted up with the tusks and stuff. Very scary! Especially if your in front of that Gatling cannon!

    I think you are right. As a kid, I always knew it as the Warthog. It is ugly but an incredible machine. The demo at the air show was pretty spectacular. Nothing like the Thunderbirds afterwards though. :D I do think the Blue Angels show was better.
