Sandy

Postby pfevrier » Fri Aug 19, 2011 10:26 pm

Here I was, flying a Sandy mission (SAR) for a downed pilot behind enemy lines. I was flying my A-10, minding my own business, taking down AAA cannons with my Maverick missiles to open a safe corridor for the rescue helos... when all of a sudden my Radar Warning Receiver screamed at me! A SAM was coming straight for me! As best as I could I dove for the deck, dropping chaff and flares in my wake. Unfortunately the missile exploded close enough that it took out one of my engines... As I limped back home I had the satisfaction to hear that the UH60 Blackhawks had picked the airman and were bringing him home safe. Here's a picture that the victim took when his rescuers came to pick him up... Enjoy!

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Nice shot!!! Where is the a-10 though?
Most people think that flying a plane is dangerous, except pilots because they know how easy it is.
Arguing with a pilot is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a while you begin to think the pig likes it.
