I think after the modification to A-10C they used more A-10 as normal. See also the delivery from 646 etc. After this mod they began to fly some of those back to Conus.

These two Spang A-10s without unit markings are 80-0281 and 81-0951.

Anybody who can confirm their call signs (Oscar wrote Retro58)?
