A-10C inspections



MOODY AIR FORCE BASE, Ga. -- After identifying structural cracks on thin skinned A-10s and A-10C Thunderbolt II models the Air Force has issued a systematic identification of certain affected airframes by corresponding tail number here Oct. 4. The inspection is necessary for the safety of aircrews and to bring our aging A-10 fleet back to health. The A-10 is a valuable asset to joint warfighters because of its unique capabilities to deliver precision-guided weapons at high altitudes and provide low altitude close air support.
