MaceUK33 Dirk Diggler's stuntman Hotshot Registered: 01/10/05 Posts: 8843 Loc: Darlington, UK	Quote: An A-10C assigned to the 104th Fighter Squadron, Maryland Air National Guard, lands at Mud Lake on the Nevada Test and Training Range, November 29, 2011. The pilots landed on an unimproved dirt runway during the day and night as a part of continuing training through the U.S. Air Force Weapons School. _________________________ Antec 902 \| MSI GTX 570 OC Twin FrozR 3 1280MB GDDR5 \| Samsung F3 1TB \| Corsair 6GB DDR3 \| Gigabyte EX58-UD3R Intel X58 \| LG DVD±RW SATA DL RW \| Corsair TX 650W ATX2.2 PSU \| Intel i7 920 2.66Ghz D0 OC'd to 3.40GHz \| Coolermaster V8 CPU Cooler \| W7 HP 64 bit \| 27" iiyama monitor \| TM HOTAS Warthog #05225 \| TM Cougar MFDs \| Saitek Pro-flight combat pedals \| Track IR 5 Tolerance and apathy are the last virtues of a dying society.

If you tried to put a Hog down in a corn field the results wouldn't be good I'd have to think! _________________________ www.DCS-Mercenaries.com A casual west coast Black Shark/A-10C Squadron always looking for extra pilots and good times!

Land on a dirt road with power lines above. I lost the front wheel, too - next time I'll hold the nose higher instead of taking pictures. WC
