While there are without question other assets that can perform the cas mission, none can do so with the same maneuverability of the a10. Could you give us your sense from an Army Perspective as whether or not the air forces decision to stand down the entire a10 fleet is in the best interest of the National Security .

Although the car was completely wiped out, nothing recognizable left of it, it sold in predictable rather than unpredictable ways which it failed in a planned fashion and the passenger compartment stay intact and the air bags deploy it, the windshield and the war did not fly off, you walk away concluding whoever is driving a car in that situation had a crack the day no question about it but probably went away from the action. Progress is a doubleedged sword, the 57 chevy is a wonderful thing in the sense you can dive under the load. You can sleep on top of the engine and so close the road on top of view. On the other hand the car that runs like a sewing machine that doesnt seem to have much romance to it has its advantages. Yes, sir . Hello.
