Thanks a lot for your very hot photo links, zerofive!

I've already posted some of these incredible Decimomannu stopover shots on my blog, and I'm now in personal contact with both photographers, who like to share their A-10C photo stuff on Warthog News.

Question: Is there already a Decimomannu Air Base 2012 topic on Scramble?

Anybody who caught the 18 homebound ANG "Rainbow Team" A-10Cs at Lajes? At least some of them left Decimomannu Air Base, Sardinia, Italy, after stopover on October 14.
