WA Wallpaper: A-10 Thunderbolt II

While I was at a Memorial Day parade today there were a pair of A-10 Thunderbolt II jets that flew overhead. It’s always a treat to see these aircraft in person…..well, at least on peaceful terms. I can see why they are feared on the battlefield - they can literally turn on a dime, not to mention their 30 mm GAU-8/A Avenger Gatling gun mounted on the nose.
This was the perfect opportunity for me to snap a couple of shots to see if I could get anything wallpaper worthy. While these are not the most close up shots in the world, having them against a clear blue sky makes for a clean uncluttered wallpaper.
