Title: A-10 at the field today
Post by FLC astroflyer on Jul 9^th, 2017 at 4:30pm

Got to see Chris Quigley's big A-10 perform it's second flight after the test flight last Wednesday. A smooth very groovy jet with awesome sound. Chris re-adjusted the throws for a bit more bite on this flight as things were quite lazy on the test flight.

The takeoff, straight forward and looked to be very easily done.

The landing was great and very smooth with only a tiny bump at one point.

Great looking aircraft Chris, looks like the "Real Thing" in the air. Al brings out the best in pictures at the field, thanks for sharing.
