In our last episode we introduced you to Maj. Ridge Flick, callsign KELSO, a United States Air Force (USAF) fighter pilot who flies the A-10 Warthog which is the primary attack aircraft for the U.S. Air Force.

We spoke with Maj. Flick when he was a Weapons Instructor Pilot at the highly respected U.S. Air Force Weapons School at Nellis Air Force Base in Nevada. That position means that Maj. Flick is at the forefront of the operational tactics that makes the Warthog virtually unmatched in the air-to-surface role.

In this episode, we continue our chat with Maj. Flick, as he shares his experiences of flying the A-10 in combat in Iraq, Syria and Afghanistan. You'll hear what's its like to do long range transits over the ocean, ways in which the A-10 was employed, squadron life, and some of the weapons that make it the preeminent Close-Air Support (CAS) aircraft in the USAF.

We also discuss some of the things that could enhance the capability of the mighty A-10 Warthog even further.

The A-10 Warthog is a truly iconic aircraft, and you'll hear all about it from KELSO's first hand perspective.

We wish to thank Maj. Flick for the time he spent with us, and we honor him and all A-10 pilots past and present with a hail to their battle-cry: ATTACK, and we echo it with ours: GO BOLD!
