If we're talking about the aircraft, you're right that the A-10 is an amazing aircraft; even now, the USAF doesn't have anything that does its mission nearly as well as it does. (Of course, close air support isn't nearly glamourous enough for the flyboys. The Army would love to take over the A-10 or develop a successor, but isn't allowed fixed-wing aircraft in its ambit.) If we're talking about the beast, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Gentlemen warthogs appear to find lady warthogs quite attractive, since there seems still to be no shortage of warthog piglets. -- 73 de ke9tv/2, Kevin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
