When Puumba Flies
Seeing a Warthog (A10) flying overhead is nothing unusual if you live in Tucson!
Heritage Flight training out at Davis-Monthan AFB here in Tucson.

The Air Force Heritage Flight Demo Team has been in town for a few days making some practice runs and getting ready for their 2024 season.
They've been buzzing the house all weekend so I decided to get out and (try to) get a couple of shots. Shooting planes really isn't my thing as you may know so any shots I did get weren't all that spectacular. Add pushing my lens out as far as it will go while trying to track a jet and you just have to accept what you get.
A plane silhouetted against the sky can be a bit boring and there just aren't many places where you can get a bit of background to go along with the planes to give them some sort of context.
If you're interested you can check out their website:
www.airforceheritageflight.org/about
to learn more about the foundation, their mission, planes, and pilots.
We've got an A10 squadron based here in Tucson at Davis-Monthan so we get to see them regularly flying above. They're easy to spot since they've got a real different sort of look to them. I might also add that the boots on the ground really appreciate the abilities the A10 has when it comes to taking out bad guys!
