TSgt Joe C., That's a benefit in being transferred right there. I've seen one flying over where I live to land at Ellington. Naturally I didn't have my camera.

Always a challenge finding the Money for any Program but I strongly suspect that it will magically appear at some point.

Given the length of time from design approval to activation of a fairly simple aircraft such as the V-22 Osprey, they better plan for maintaining the A-10 for the next couple of decades.
