I tend to be a bit willowy, and prone to hitting my opponents from afar.

For all those Military Aviator Bronys out there, enjoy. :rainbowdetermined2:

P.S. I'll try to keep a progress report on my page, post on my page if you want me to.

BTW, if there is anything I missed or is wrong please private message me, I check my messages more then my comments.

Wait, if they're making fun of the Air Force, then who are they?

They are badass Marine pilots, best of the best.
The Chair-Force I always believed that they shouldn't do ground attack missions. :rainbowlaugh:

I was just a little confused. In real life, the A-10 is USAF only.

They Spectre is USAF, and yeah they are humans and yes RD was just having fun on the runway. I don't know why I kept calling the control stick the yoke :twilightblush: my bad. I might edit that out.
I know Marines flying A-10's is blasphemous but like I said in the story, they're Wonderbolt Squadron they fly what they want when they want, and I always personally believed that the army and Marines should support ground troops just because.

I was a little hesitant to post this one because I knew I would miss something and turns out I did, alot

Oorah! :rainbowdetermined2:

Following this, you've appealed to the inner fly-boy!

I do like to leav a thumb and not comment so here you go!

GK-47, I assume you are a Marine enthusiast or Marine active duty by the Oorah, are you?

Just letting you guys know, I might post the second chapter where RD's hopes for a routine mission come crashing down, tomorrow morning or a little later in the day.

Ten points if you can guess how old I am.

You're 12-16 I'd guess? Also, I don't approve of this fanfiction.

Damn straight the F-35 can't do the A-10's job as well as the A-10 can.

New chapter up,this one's a little flashback explaining Armor and RainbowDash :rainbowkiss:

Don't overwork yourself with ideas. It'll torture you if you are working on one but think of another:pinkiesick:

Eh, I have split personalities.

WAIT

Flying low to avoid SAM batteries? Seems legit. Of course, if a missile were to be launched, they would have fewer options in evading.

Combat flights don't have separate call signs. The call sign would be the Flight name - aircraft number. I.E, Angel 1, Angel 2, Angel 3. Or Raven 1, Raven two. Or in this case, Wonderbolt 1, 2, 3 etc.

Rotate would be at around 130 - 150 knots, not 200.

163 would be southwest, not south.

The last use of Napalms by American troops was in 1996.

"Cruise at 2,000". Military terms is simply "Angels 2"

-_- So, friendly troops needed assistance, and they were ordered to proceed back to base?

Lowering the flaps to descend rapidly is a very bad idea. They would probably be ripped off. Flaps are lowered to slow a decent, and overspeeding/stressing them will destroy them.

"The bastard shot up my ejector system, but how did they miss me?" Good question. Plot convenience, I'm assuming.

I sincerely apologize for all this nitpicking, but I suggest you do your research.

I will track this fic, see where it goes.

Oh, and I also love how this is completely unrelated to ponies except for the names :pinkiehappy:
