Yes sir...
They also had one of the only two A-10s to date that has claimed an air-to-air victory in their group.
Chopper Popper flown by Captain Robert R. Swain. He was credited with bringing down the Iraqi Bo 105.
It's now on display as seen above at the US Air Force Academy.
Unfortunately for the Cajuns, BRAC got to them....
Would make a cool schemet though...
Go Ugly Early in 1/18!!
Still waiting and wishing for a 1/18 A-10 Warthog.

The mind is the limit. As long as the mind can envision the fact that you can do something, you can do it, as long as you really believe 100 percent.

PH,
I'm considering it - still on the fence. Forgive me if you've covered this in the thread - are you planning on doing any ordnance with the A-10 for the $350-$500 price range?

I have gone back and forth about this. I am thinking of minamal ordanace with the basic model.
Fully loaded as an option. Painting all those bombs ans other weapons of dectruction with thier multipul colors is a whole other project unto it self.

Pickel have you ever thought about farming out the painting to some one else so it didn't bog you down?

Well,
I am wanting to do the Sdkfz 222 next as stated, but I tell you JSI is putting their feelers out for a collectors list and this could prove fatal for this A-10 project.
Thoughts ?

I'd probably put it on hold for a few months just to be safe.

That is one project I would buy from you. Not that your work isn't top notch stuff, but I do want an A-10 very badly.
Give it some time to be sure no one is going to release one and then let us know!

I agree with what Jericoe and Panther have said. Give it a little time and see what happens.
I'll be in if you put it in motion.
