There are alot of changes in the hog community lately and many people are seeing very different perspectives to those changes. I think that alone will make us a quaralsome bunch for few years but itll calm down just as this site will much sooner.

BTW Props Hogpen13 for going toe to toe like in the engines posts.

Could you give me this in plain english? Please.

There's so much to talk about the A-10 and it looks like the Hog has many years left ahead of him. Some folks may be intimidated to ask questions on the subject in risk of being stupid. Let's go for it and ask away!

I get to see a lot of them but doesn't know much about avionics, upgrade, etc.. I'm just a photographer!<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

Cheers, Philippe.

Phillippe, it's all good you are just getting an inside look at the A-10 community and how we maintainers (and pilots) will bust each others baIIs if the info posted is wrong in any way... It's that alpha-male thing....

Surely you jest, that would never happen around this place. Would it?

Maybe folks are a bit uptight 'cause of all the rain at HAWGWASH...errr...HAWGSMOKE didn't allow for a full competition! <img src=icon_smile_angry.gif border=0 align=middle>

Still, compared to the days when they talked about shelving the A-10 and replacing it with the A-16 (spit), things are fairly calm. As it has been said, the future looks somewhat bright; but with all great things, eventually they must come to an end (sts). And speaking of which, if I may, <b>God bless Ronald Reagan!</b>

HOGPEN,

M2, you talk like those days are gone!? <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

chili_kerch, that's the way of the world, you could make a "wild kingdom" episode on the wild beasts and life or death struggles (read that who goes home first) of the Flightline!

You think it's bad now wait until PE hits and watch the spark-chasers, GAC, and weapons troops go at it.

HOGPEN,

Hell the weapons troops already don't do any maintenance......all they know how to do is push a box and load the gun and bombs. Anything breaks and it is "PIGSSSS INNNNN SPACEEEEE!" looks all throughout their office and jobs loaded against my work center in mine.
I just figured well if I fix for them at least I know the jobs won't come back the next flight. :)
PE no longer scares me, since they have gotten me ready for it over the last several years of doing all thier maintenance. F#%King weapons troops!

Now come on Chili, we all know the specs are the last ones to come to work and the first ones to go home. And as far as fixin stuff, when all else fails punt it straight back to the crew chief..

Hitler-Are we really going to get into the "Who does more work, Whos more important" pissing contest here. If you loose the Crew Chiefs, jet dont fly. I you loose the Specs, jets don't fly. If you loose weapons, there is no point to fly.

Last time I checked the specs work 12's along side the Crew Chiefs

First off I'd never start a pissing contest, that post was meant as a rhetorical comment and good-natured ribbing to Chili’s statement about weapons troops.

Secondly, as for who does what and how much. I’m fully aware of what it takes to turn an NMCS aircraft into a FMC killing machine, and I’ll admit ALL flight-line AFSC’s (some more than others) work entirely to many 12 hour shifts to accomplish it. That’s one reason while I was stationed at Pope I was so proactive in getting a three shift (servicing crews don’t count) operation, and you know what.. it worked. It didn’t completely eliminate the 12-hour shifts we worked but it sure as hell curbed them. Now if ACC would just catch on and officially allow us to do this I think everyone's life would be better off.

Ok back to the good-natured ribbing..

“If it weren’t for WEAPONS it would be just another airplane”
“Crew Dawgs get it done.......but Specs have all the fun!!!!!!”
“If it yanks banks and rolls crew chief’s make it happen”

Ah the list goes on, but when everything’s said and done whose name is on the side of the jet?

Now I didn't mean to ofend ya Lil Hitler. It was all good natured ribbin. I respect all the flight line AFSC's and I agree with you in that all too many of us are workin too long and too damn hard with little or no recognition. As the flight line we mke it happen everyday. Pilots see the fuits of our labors but no one else will ever fully apriciate what we do for a living. Thats what makes us the salty maintainer we are. This kind of forum is living proof of that.

As for who's name is on the Jet, I've seen heavys and 130's with dedicated specs on the side of the jet. My name is in the work I do on EVERY jet on my flight line. Though on the Hawg its the Crew Chief that takes responibility for the good and bad on his jet. I give props for that.
