Re: Lajes (Azores) (LPLA/TER) - 2010 MIL
mm,
seems that only 6 of the 8 Italian vipers made it to DM.
Maybe somebody can confirm that the other 2 made a landing in the Eastcoast US?

Re: Lajes (Azores) (LPLA/TER) - 2010 MIL
Is there any destination known for both A-10s? Spangdahlem AB (if really only two)? Or Kandahar Airfield, Afghanistan (as advance guard of an ANG "Rainbow Team" to replace the 81st Expeditionary Fighter Squadron from Spang)? Any pictures, taken at Lajes?

Re: Lajes (Azores) (LPLA/TER) - 2010 MIL
According to anonymous comments to my Warthog News blog, both A-10Cs are heading to Kandahar Airfield, Afghanistan, to reinforce the 81st Expeditionary Fighter Squadron.
This source said:
- More A-10's went to Kandahar AF from Spangdahlem as well as the guard. They requested more planes down there.
- also the 81st will be there longer since they sent more people and A-10s.

Any A-10 stopover updates from Lajes? I would be very grateful for any additional info and pictures.

Re: Lajes (Azores) (LPLA/TER) - 2010 MIL
Hi J.J. and others,
I have no additional info about the A-10's.
I think that the 2 ID coded A-10's who where at Lajes did a rendezvous at Sigonella with the 6 SP A-10's and then fly futher into Afgan with the ZZ kadena tanker aswel. That ZZ tanker was spotted several days later on Mildenhall.....
Hog grtzzz,

Latest 23rd Wing Public Affairs info sounds like the 75th Expeditionary Fighter Squadron with an undisclosed number of A-10Cs will replace the 81st Expeditionary Fighter Squadron at Kandahar Airfield, Afghanistan, in support of Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF).
