I've been crazy on 'those strange flying machines' since I was a kid...seems like 300 years ago - but I'm only 54 !!
I worked in the airline industry for 17 years in London and at LHR and got to play with civilian airliners before joining a US Telecoms company and racked up more flying hours in 3 years with them than with the airline in 17 years!
My main interests are US Mil, and, as you may have guessed, my true love is the A-10 'Hog'. Lucky enough to get a tour round Hagerstown when they were still building them. Awesome!
Now retired and live on the beach in Turkey. Don't get too many A-10's around here...unless the US are going to sell off second-hand machines to the Turkish Ar Force to pay for the bank bail-outs, ha ha !
