It looks like they didnt count some of the Late ones,80-0166 Mine didnt make the list with the Left engine taking AAA that was February 25th 1991.
Billy saw the ABDR repair, and I dont see anything listed after
Feb 22 1991
I dont think thats all the lost Jets either,might be wrong I dont see
79-9197 list either as Battle Damaged, they had to send it back Boxed-up.

So at best its up to Feb 22 1991 up to date, The Report was done in 1993

I dont know if I'm going blind or what, but I know in the report,on the link it tells you about the AGM-65 being fired into the Wall at KFIA 1992.
I cant find the date or where I wrote it down and I need it for someone.
If anyone else gets time can you give the Goose a Hand?

I looked thru that report the best I could, the Index's arent even right,"Figures in an USAF REPORT" <img src=icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>
Any Who, I found the reference to the "Good Morning America" ThanksGiving Day Show complete with the
"HELLFIRE MISSLE LAUNCH INTO THE ARMY'S CANDY STORE" while on TV.

The Military Civilain Tech Shot a Hellfire into the AMMO storage area and lucky it had only Fuses in it at the time but they ended-up throwing away some UXO's that was exposed to the Fire.

But IT SHOOK THE HELL OUT OF US at over 4 miles away and a
BIG BLACK CLOUD!

But on the search page it has the Mishap with the AGM-65 on it showning its in the report.

My eyes gave out.


But this was the BIGGY in the report

I saved that report. It will be interesting reading. I wonder how many of the A-10 are actually still in service today.
