When I was in tech school, we all filed into the base theater for our monthly "Warrior Day" propaganda film, part of which was an ultra-slow motion of an A-10 using its Vulcan on a garbage truck. One of the coolest things I've ever seen. There's a thing in "The Day The Earth Stood Still", where a semi gets eaten by the "swarm". It was a lot like that. It may not be the most advanced plane we ever put in service, but it's still my favorite.

While up in the Idaho mountains dirt biking East of Boise a few years ago, our camp was treated to a thoroughly over the top display of this awesome aircraft on manouvers from the nearby Mountain Home AFB or Boise Idaho ANG.

A half dozen of these flew right over the top of us and circled the mountainside. The sound was deafening,and they were flying so low that we could see the pilots. Head on, and coming right at us, the view was very imposing to say the least.

They must've seen us jumping up and down cheering like bastards, and they loitered over the camp for a while pulling some steep banking turns as we scrambled for our cameras.smileys with beer
