The Fairchild Republic A-10-C Warthog The Thunderbolt II is a single-seat, twin turbofan engine, straight wing jet aircraft developed by Fairchild-Republic for the United States Air Force (USAF). Commonly referred to by its nicknames Warthog or Hog, its official name comes from the Republic P-47 Thunderbolt, a World War II fighter that was effective at attacking ground targets. The A-10 was designed for close-in support of ground troops, close air support (CAS), and providing quick-action support for troops against helicopters and ground forces. It entered service in 1976 and is the only production-built aircraft that has served in the USAF that was designed solely for CAS. Its secondary mission is to provide forward air controller – airborne (FAC-A) support, by directing other aircraft in attacks on ground targets. Aircraft used primarily in this role are designated OA-10.
The A-10 was intended to improve on the performance of the A-1 Skyraider and its poor firepower. The A-10 was designed around the 30 mm GAU-8 Avenger rotary cannon. Its airframe was designed for durability, with measures such as 1,200 pounds (540 kg) of titanium armor to protect the cockpit and aircraft systems, enabling it to absorb a significant amount of damage and continue flying. Its short takeoff and landing capability permits operation from airstrips close to the front lines, and its simple design enables maintenance with minimal facilities. The A-10 served in Operation Desert Shield, and Operation Desert Storm, the American intervention against Iraq's invasion of Kuwait, where the A-10 distinguished itself. The A-10 also participated in other conflicts such as Operation Urgent Fury in Grenada, the Balkans, Afghanistan, Iraq, and against ISIL in the Middle East.
The A-10A single-seat variant was the only version produced, though one pre-production airframe was modified into the YA-10B twin-seat prototype to test an all-weather night capable version. In 2005, a program was started to upgrade remaining A-10A aircraft to the A-10C configuration with modern avionics for use of precision weaponry. The U.S. Air Force had stated the F-35 would replace the A-10 as it entered service, but this remains highly contentious within the Air Force and in political circles. With a variety of upgrades and wing replacements, the A-10's service life may be extended to 2040.

Engineering the future
This car was a fun build, put lots of SNOT work into it making it a nice challenge.
I based most of the “facts” above off a really cool book that I’m reading (and I suggest all LEGO sci-fi builders read it too) “Physics of the Future” By Michio Kaku. The book has lots of very cool facts in it, and how certain prototypes today, may be used in the future.
Tell me what you think about the Skyfire I really enjoy your comments!
The Engine Hotel was a favourite for Hunslet Rugby League supporters on their way to local games. It closed in early 2008. At one time it used to brew its own beer.
The loco above the door is a model of a Sir Henry Fowler designed loco, no 16440, built in 1925 by North British Locomotive Company (NBL) of Glasgow. The 16440 was a London Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS) Fowler Class 3F loco, built at Hunslet Engine Co in 1927.
(Fowler Class 3F locos, as a class were known as Jinty after an engine of this type appeared in the Rev W Awdry's Railway Series book "The Eight Famous Engines", named Jinty.)

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pratt_%26_Whitney_R-2800_Double_Wasp – The R-2800 engine, in its initial use, had a tendancy to overheat. This Wiki article explains how these improved, very narrow, cylinder cooling fins were cut into the aluminum, all at once and following required contours.

After meeting the CP 8547 South at Green Island, the IC&E's MCCHU (Chicago-Huron, SD) train's crew pulled out of the siding after operating the new radio-controlled north siding switch.
MCCHU's crew will go dead on the hours at Dubuque. The heavier-than-usual traffic on the IC&E Chicago and Marquette Subdivisions due to detouring CP freights is wreaking havoc on the IC&E's schedules.
CP traffic between Minneapolis is detouring via the IC&E and other routes due to flooding that inundated CP's Watertown Subdivision.
