Great thread!
My brother in law is a USAF Colonel (Ret).
He's flown some of the fast stuff (Bosnia, etc) but the stories I most enjoy hearing are of him flying the A-10 in the gulf wars.
It's like the difference listening to a guy talk about how he took his Lamborghini to 200 on the autobahn one time, versus the next guy who put 400k miles on his trusty, rusty Tacoma that always got him home and saved his ass. There is just a fondness in his voice for the warthog that is palpable.
By the way, thanks to the military members in this thread. Your service is much appreciated!
