They fly out of Fort Drum, in upstate NY. Home to the 10th Mountain Division.

They fly in over my office in New London once a week.

A-10's are an aircraft used by the Army as tank busters and bunker busters.

Spend some time mid-week up around Newfound lake, Tenney Mountain and any other peak in that area if you really want a show. They dogfight in and around the peaks and valleys, it is one of the coolest things I have been able to see, that close up. They were there almost every week of a 3 month condo renovation on Tenney Mountain.
