Nice pics - the exposure is very well controlled - the sky's not 
burnt out but at the same time there's detail in the shadows - 
shame about the resolution though...

...and they had me puzzled for a little while, until I did a bit of 
research.

The first thing that I noticed was the colour scheme and I just 
thought it was coincidental that it happened to be the one I chose 
for the FG A-10.  However, then I remembered that this colour 
scheme was only used for a short time, relatively soon after the 
A-10 was introduced, back in the late 1970's or very early 80's, 
and well before digital cameras were around - strange.

However, after checking the tail-codes and wing badges, it looks as 
though the West Coast A-10 Demo team must have re-painted their 
A-10s back in to this old colour scheme:)

I think this is AF78-0662 - an OA-10.
