Everyone is posting this docco around, I decided to give it a go and... I don't know, I found it a little underwhelming. Maybe it's because I have no connection to the US or anyone involved in Afghanistan and Iraq, but it looks more like another part of the endless tug of war around the 'to A-10 or not to A-10' debate.

 

That said, it does a good job at depicting the difference in mentality between pilots who work regularly with infantry (CAS/CSAR/MEDEVAC namely) and those who don't.

Super  Doco and quality footage! Certainly very interesting to see both sides of the story and their respective views of each other even though they represent the different arms of the armed forces. :salute:
