rcjonessnp175 Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 It was some time this week been a long week. Was instructing two of my guys heard that distinct growl looked up and 4 hogs coming from east then turned north to head to the Airforce academy as shown in video. Was hoping they where here for some gunnery but guess will settle for the Apaches :) I7 4770k @ 4.6, sli 980 evga oc edition, ssdx2, Sony 55 inch edid hack nvidia 3dvision.

I dunno what they'd be doing near Ft. Carson as that's much further south.
rcjonessnp175 Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 Not to far I was on range 43 which is very north fort Carson. They appeared from my position mid to north Colorado Springs was able to observe them in from the east and turn to the north.

rcjonessnp175 Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 Loved Ft. Carson and Colorado Springs. I was a Shadow training team flight instructor there in 2005. Got my PPL at Springs Aviation. Thank you for your service. I'm looking to get license and cert here also. I7 4770k @ 4.6, sli 980 evga oc edition, ssdx2, Sony 55 inch edid hack nvidia 3dvision. Volair sim pit, DK2 Oculus Rift.

It was nice to see A-10s instead of the the usual prop planes/gliders here! What do you teach at Ft. Carson?

IM in what you would call the sniper locker in 10th sfg. So i teach our sniper courses here at 10th sfg. Ya was great to see the hog flying around had many good experiences in the sand box with her along with many of my fellow Oda brothers here. I dont care what they say that bird has saved more lives than any other out their and honestly has the same pyschological effect as a sniper has on the battelfield.

thunderchicken02 Posted May 2, 2015 Author Posted May 2, 2015 Awesome, cool to know that other military folks play DCS!

Catastrophy Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 My aunt lives near Bitburg. Her next door neighbours used to be officers stationed at one of the bases. Guess what I got to see sitting on a swing when I was a tiny toddler. I could see the pilots in the canopy when they screamed over the hill!
