Pictured on the ramp of homebase Davis Monthan. The Warthog is missing some parts of the tail, just these which are usually colored for recognition of the squadron. But the fuselage shows the 357th TFTS badge, part of the 355th Tactical Training Wing which is shown with additional marks on the tail. Serial 224 was stored at AMAC on 19 April 1992 with inventory code AC0056. It left the depot on 23 June 1994 and was afterwards scrapped.

After service, this 270 became an instructional airframe at McChord AFB (WA) from December 1992. From June 1995, it started a career as a preserved aircraft at the gate of McChord.

This fine A-10A, based at England AFB (LA), was a very welcome visitor to the RIAT 1989. The aircraft was delivered to the USAF in 1984 and direct assigned to the 81st TFW at Bentwaters/Woodbridge (UK). It returned to CONUS in 1989 and was assigned to thes 76th TFS, part of the AFRes and based at England. Great to see the aircraft back on UK soil during the RIAT with another tailcode. Following the 76th, it served the 75th FS at Moody AFB (GA) with tailcode FT from late 1992. It was moved for storage to AMARG on 31 January 2024.
