Which was a composite training wing with a wide (...) (23 years ago, 30-Nov-01, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.build.military)

| (...) Well, technic figs come apart somewhat easily, so I could litter it with some shrapnel from one of them :) Maybe my next project will be a minifig scale A-10. Now that I've built the big version, I might be able to do a smaller one. I don't (...) (23 years ago, 30-Nov-01, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.build.military)

| Nice to see the good ole Thunderbolt II!!!!! Sad it's in technic form, no dismembered minifigs from the cannon on front. :P Does the seat really slide in? that makes a neat ejection system. the rotating machine gun is good too. I also like how you (...) (23 years ago, 30-Nov-01, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.build.military)

| Hey gang, my latest creation is completed. With 3 technic motors, 1 micromotor, 3 fiberoptic banks, 4 large pneumatic cylinders, and 1 small pneumatic cylinder, this has a lot of nifty features. Check out the A-10 on the technic page. Thanks much (...) (23 years ago, 30-Nov-01, to lugnet.announce, lugnet.technic, lugnet.build.military) !!
