Maintainers meet for A-10 repair lesson

Wing crack worries continue to ground about 190 A-10 Thunderbolts.

To get the fighters back into the sky more quickly, a team of traveling trainers is teaching maintainers to repair the cracks at their home bases.

About 40 technicians from several A-10 bases gathered Nov. 12 at Moody Air Force Base, Ga., for hands-on instruction from a repair team from Ogden Air Logistics Center, Utah.

The Air Force had considered repairing most of the cracked wings at Ogden, the center for A-10 overhauls, but doing the work at bases where A-10s are assigned should save money and time.
