Photo Comment

Close to the runway during take-off is always very spectacular. This A-10C was part of a 12-strong 74th Expeditionary Fighter Squadron security package deployment to Graf Ignatievo in Bulgaria in support of Operation Atlantic Resolve. The 74th FS "Flying Tigers" is normally based at Moody AFB (GA) as part of the 23rd Wing.
