Retired A-10 engine guy (TF34-100A). Thanks for sharing the video. What you have there is the engine core with the compressor case/compressor and the combustion case where all of the orange hoses are. The top hose bundle is for the fuel injectors. All the way up front where the studs are sticking out is your front fan shaft. That is where the fan disk bolts too. The white paneling behind the engine is part of the engine nacelle. its crazy how destroyed that engine is because the whole fan section, gearbox with accessories, and LPT section is gone. I just noticed that the rear engine mount known as the coke bottle is also visible between the thrust mount and the nacelle. From the pieces I can identify. This looks to be the #1 engine.
Hey HD Sparks not sure if you could help but my mother in law is trapped in NC with the flooding no one has heard from her in over 72 hours Red Cross swamped and so are the local authorities. I know this may be a longshot for you to see this comment. But you’re the only guy I am aware of that has a Blackhawk helicopter. I wish you the best I love your rescue recovery videos and your attempts to find missing people. God Bless you!
@@garywaters6356 I heard and Its so sad and shameful what the Left is doing stealing taxpayer dollars and giving it away to non citizens and funding foreign wars. Democrats voted this in and we are seeing the results of two incomparable world views are coming to the forefront for all to see. Lefties online are even cheering at the deaths of possible political opponents. So ignorant and evil. Political brain rot is real. Asheville is a super liberal NC city completely devastated and not one single republican is cheering for their death online, instead they are out with their private helicopters, drones, and rescue vehicles trying to save lives. The lefty politicians are threatening to arrest or jail people flying private helicopters delivering life saving supplies its disgusting. The same time they said we don't have money to help Americans they sent millions of dollars to a different country in disaster. If you think your government cares about your wellbeing it could cost you your life.
I recently went to a Marine CH-53 crash site, near Pine Valley, CA. I actually took the copilots widow up there to leave a plaque for her husband. It was... an amazing experience and was happy I was able to help her get there. Hopefully going back up there soon. The entire main rotor transmission assembly is still up there.
@HeavyDsparks... YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE... the citizens of Tennessee NEED your helicopter help. Biden and Harris have abandoned 1000 dead Americans over there. The floods have left them with ZERO supplies, no food, no water, no power. I BELIEVE IN YOU BRO!!!!? WHERE YOU AT?!?!?!
Dave come to NC,TN,SC,GA,FL To help with recovery efforts after hurricane Helene. You’re the man for it, you love helping people in need! It’s right up your alley!
I don't know about that. lol Better make some phone calls first. Wouldn't be to nice to get there with a helo or two to help and have the Fire Chief on an ego trip tell you to get away.
He does not have the right equipment and it would take a long time to get there. They are turning away pilots as they have 50+ civil Helos and the NG air assets. On top of that he only has the BlackHawk and the Daulphin. They need small helo's like Cletus's 500. Watch the Dale Download that was just poseted today. Cletus explains what is going on and they are telling him not to come back.
Please go to North Carolina and help the people out. I’m a North Carolina native and it’s truly upsetting what is happening in the Asheville area right now they could really use you. Especially the families with little kids
It's a crash site where no one perished so it's not a memorial site. It's not historic it is just littering the mountain side with debris. The military should have cleaned it up.
I hope that you guys are helping the hurricain victims already, but if you haven't done it yet, please help them. You have the equipment and the resources to make a huge difference in these people's lives. Please help them God bless!
Researched WWII records. Two days flying over the general area, we spotted the reflection of a large metal object in a wash. 4×4'd to the site and located a complete vertical stabilizer off of a B-24 Liberator. Took three days to gather all of the good stuff...
I’m from Asheville. Idk if they would even let you help. But the Asheville water department has an astronomical task of getting dirt back in place to restore the water lines. Just throwing that out there if you guys were planning to come.
No their not. I live here. FEMA trying to arrest people for helping. And there is ALOT more people that are dead then media is telling. Dead bodies still being found in trees. @robotpizza
I live in Las Vegas, and I am surprised the A-10 squadron turned South East out of Nellis Air Force Base. Almost 90% of the time the jets turn North West towards area-51 bombing range. I found the wreckage of an A-6 Intruder back in the mid 90's in the mountains of Anza California that was out of Miramar Naval Air Base from the 60's. According to my research on the wreck the pilot did eject safely.
The A-10 is my favorite plane, love the way it looks and sounds, and while it’s sad to see it crashed/torn apart, it’s also really cool. Anything declassified about the plane I’ve looked into/studied out of boredom/curiosity, so being able to label certain parts in their mangled state/being able to figure out where they go (before the video says it) is also pretty cool. Neat site to explore.
Awesome video, man. They sure could use you guys in NC right now. There are parts that are only accessible by air. We need all the help we can get. so many people are missing. Much love.
"few pieces of metal" mf thinks an entire engine, smashed transmitter, and cabin plating is "a few pieces of metal". That's a pretty substantial find. Plus they literally said the aircraft crashed going 420mph. How intact did you expect this thing to be?
@@UndBeebs you're the mf, im just saying that you see the thumbnail you're like that's a crazy plane, you see the video it's just the engine .... yes planes can crash and still be intact i've visited one myself that crashed in a jungle 50 years ago and it was still in one piece i mean come the dude got a black hawk helicoptere you'd think he could actually come up with ccrazy adventures
We had been camping that weekend at Upper Kents Lake. On our return home, we went through the Virgin River Gorge just a few minutes after the crash. Smoke was still billowing out of the crash site, and first responders had not yet been able to get to the site. Amazing. Thanks Dave for letting us get a closer look at what happened there.

Hey Dave I have a potential recovery for you to look into......would probably be the absolute most difficult recovery you have done.....Nakina Ontario Canada there is a locomotive that derailed and crashed into a lake back in the early 90s ....the crew is still on board it's about time they get the resting place they deserve
Just letting you know..Dave and Dave I just watched the episode of the 16 year olds jeep that rolled over and wanted you all know that you are some of the greatest people I have ever seen and God bless you for everything you do
I’m really surprised that you guys aren’t over there helping with the rescue effort of the hurricane recovery. But I guess it would be more difficult for you to just fly your chopper over and help. Too bad though because your equipment would be a lot better than the little ones they are using. You’re a good man heavy D and I know if it was possible you would be there.
His blackhawk is of limited help. There are no LZ's large enough or the NG blackhawks would have already landed. The Daulphin has wheels so limited on terrain it can land on. The little ones ( Cletus's 500) are the ones that can get in and out. Watch the Dale Download with Cletus he expalins the problem.
Please take your helicopter and go help North Carolina. Or inquire how you can help. It's terrible. Greene county is very bad off. isolated with little supplies. Bridges are destroyed.
Imagine surviving a plane crash, having to eject, spending the following days calming down from the adrenaline and the "did that just happen" shock. Then comes next Tuesday, one week to the day since the crash. You're feeling almost kinda back to normal by this point. And then someone calls you and yells at you to turn on the tv. What channel, you ask? Any channel, they say - they're all showing the same thing...
Hey heavy d we are huge fans of you and we are in some dire straights in Asheville NC and surrounding areas... If you have any extra big trucks or heavy equipment that can lift trees and possibly help distribute food and water that would be absolutely amazing and helpful. Or if you even know someone in the area that can travel I 26 East that would be a life saver. Thanks for keeping the content flowing and God bless you and yours
Wouldn't you be able to use that Chinook ch-46 you were looking at to recover any big parts of the wreckage if you were to get it and get it back in the air. If so I think it would be cool to use it in recovery missions like this and others. I think getting something for water recovery would be cool to especially if you were to have some retired seals to be part of a dive team to do things like looking for old ship wreckage that went down with massive amounts of cash holds finding just one would probably be both life changing as far as the cashes but also documenting the recovery of it.
That “radio” he found at 12:24 is actually a piece of the IFF receiver-transmitter. It helps the pilot determine who is a friendly fellow aircraft or enemy/unknown aircraft! Gotta love being an avionics mechanic
Hello my name is Bill Driessen I live in Wisconsin! That really don't matter! Real purpose of this is wondering if with the Disaster from the hurricane it sounds like they need alot of help! And from your Videos that you like helping out people in need! And from the news I have seen on UA-cam and What Cleetus maybe your team could help out ! Love watching your videos
Not Again... I used to really like Heavy D, before EVERY video became a paid commercial and he TOTALLY sold out! I was even going to buy my son merch at one point. Will he even read this? Does he even care?
D!! Can y'all help the people in the hurricane damage and fly in and save people, there was on guy and his son but his chopper is very small!!! You are the only one who can do this!
Will someone please tell heavy d we need him in north carolina. The government is letting people die after the hurricane came thru. We need to bring light to the catastrophe going on. Please I beg you to look into this. God bless
Wow this is nuts the fact that a lot of these comments are ppl ask in for help is alarming Ik the government can’t cover everything(they could but they have the excuse of budget n resources is hot garbage) but there’s ppl in nothing but struggle time n living hell this shows imo the government really isn’t helping..I pray for all the ppl in need of help not matter how little or big of help, help is still help we gotta pull together I wish I could help
They are moving in the resources need. Now sure military grunts may not be trained if like new. But have discipline and can follow orders. If longer term can be the leaders. I was never first responder and never or rarely first on scene. Just utility cleanup at smaller more local weather.
With the huge catastrophe with thousands stranded in floods in mountains of TN. I don’t know if it’s possible for you to help out with your Choppers or other means but man it would be cool to watch you doing stuff out there. I would be happy to come along and help if you go.

Watching another epic episode of HeavyD and the boys at sunrise in Hawaii. Sending out Aloha and our deepest respects to the people who make this channel possible. You guys have really stepped up big time over the last few years we've been watching the channel. Always stoked to see what's going on next. If you're ever out in Hawaii, get in touch, we'll show you a visit like you can't imagine.
Hey man I live in concord North Carolina about 1-2 hours away from me in western Carolina they have gone through a disastrous flood killing thousands the government is trying to cover up things up here they are stopping there own citizens from helping people in need i don’t know what you and your team can do but i thought I’d share it in hopes that there could be more awareness brought to this issue there are still thousands of people stranded in rural parts of western North Carolina. If you come across this post and can’t help or spread awareness please keep western Carolina in your prayers they are battling an environmental disaster on top of the government covering stuff up.
That's a heck of climb! What until you're an old fart like myself almost 70. I have copd for 22 years. I'm still going out climbing more hills now, but it still kicks my butt. You're coming up with some cool stuff, I watch, I have to give you and Dave a compliment. You've definitely move up town. I'm saying you guys are doing well and I'm very happy for you. I've been watching you from way back You've done some growing for sure. Keep recording and I'll keep watching. Be safe, be happy!
you have a good crew and i hope you do well. the A-10 Warthog is very respected air support among ground units. i knew of a crash on landing where only the pilots torso was found strapped to his seat. that particular craft had taken so much damage but made it to the designated landing strip and disintegrated on impact, i.e. controlled crash, loss of pilot, but he returned home to us as his final task. keep respect in mind when speaking about veterans. all veterans appreciate seeing a strong crew of young men who work and help like what you're doing here.
Hey, I can't find a better place to reach out and after hearing about other chopper owners issues running supplies and rescues to the hurricane victims. My thoughts went to this is right up your alley and that Cletus McFarland was out there helping too. I don't know what the status is but the Port Lurie Fire Chief told a vet pilot and small chopper owner to leave the area or else...
@HeavyDsparks... YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE... the citizens of Tennessee NEED your helicopter help. Biden and Harris have abandoned 1000 dead Americans over there. The floods have left them with ZERO supplies, no food, no water, no power. I BELIEVE IN YOU BRO!!!!? WHERE YOU AT?!?!?!
I was an aircraft mechanic at H.A.F.B specifically in landing gear. I worked on A-10, F-16 ,C-5, C-130 ,F-22. It woulda been kinda cool to see that landing gear I'd recognized working on. MInus the hike of course 6:37 btw that absolutely was not part of landing gear
The "Reynolds wrap" you found is really called "Honeycomb" the aluminium is 90° to the surface and filled with foam making a very lightweight strong assembly.
Sucks that she crashed but super cool you got to see an A-10! As an A-10 lover up here in idaho, i am blessed to be next to the 190th fighter squadron! I always love going out to the Boise Airport and watch em fly! Nothing beats the sound of those TF34 engines she has!!! Much love from idaho!!!!
Hey Dave, A-10 maintainer of 10 years here, that first piece you found at 7:00 is the Nacelle to engine thrust mount. EDIT: Also the engine you found is one of the two TF34's, the fan is obviously missing, as well as the gearbox with all accessories.
Having worked on the a-10 for over 10 years it's interesting to see the parts That radio transmitter part you found with the two connectors that is actually the IFF transponder aircraft identification, but this part is the unclassified part and it gives out the altitude and the old four digit code for a particular aircraft. It's an obsolete part today.
We need your helicopters and resources in Western North Carolina. We are having a logistical nightmare that I swear you guys would be a MAJOR benefit to have helping. It would be beyond words how grateful the Appalachian mountains would be. I wonder if this is something on your radar?
Heavy, we could really use your Blackhawk in the mountains of North Carolina to save people that are dying on top of the mountains! If you could please get there it will be awesome. They’re looking for people with helicopters.
Will you be helping those in Carolina? I think you can make a huge impact with those who are stranded due to road collapse and running out of food and supplies to live. They are completely cut off from society right now
Are you guys going to be helping with the hurricane Helene relief with your helicopters because you have a fleet of helicopters if you used your three helicopters, you could seriously help them and I’m purely just curious
On Monday 3rd September 2001, USAF A-10A Thunderbolt II 78-0676/FT of the 75th FS, based at Pope Air Force Base, and assigned to 4th Fighter Wing at Seymour-Johnson AFB was destroyed when it crashed shortly after taking off from Nellis AFB. The A-10A impacted into a cliff near Mesquite, Virgin River Gorge, Clark County, Nevada. (At approximate Coordinates: 36°48′9″N 114°4′56″W. The official USAF AIB report gives the crash location as "Virgin River Gorge, north west Arizona, along Interstate 15, between St. George, Utah, and Mesquite, Nevada"). The pilot, Captain Frederick Sellers, ejected and was rescued by a Las Vegas police helicopter.

Im a skilled Warthog pilot,been flying it since 2013-11years now...Alot of kills! (In battlefield 4 on Xbox) But seriously,imagine the ammount of money you can get if able to recover all of those parts!Wow!
Hey big guy we are needing help over here in NC AND TENN Noone has food water etc they are needing help getting supplies to Ashville and Boone north Carolina I don't know if you are able to come help it would be appreciated have a great day!!
21yr A-10 mechanic...that "landing gear/control strut" you found was one of the main engine thrust mounts. The first engine you found is a main engine, TF-34 GE 100-A. The reason it looks small because it is a high by-pass fan.
Always enjoy your adventures. You made this one look like a walk in the park, and I am sure it was not. What a gnarly terrain. Thank you for your genuine reality and your hard work.

Are you going to help out with the rescue efforts in Georgia and Tennessee? Pilots are in great need.
The most humble, passionate, and patriotic individuals with incredible skill and talent…. You guys continue to impress
Wouldn't you be able to use that Chinook ch-46 you were looking at to recover any big parts of the wreckage if you were to get it and get it back in the air. If so I think it would be cool to use it in recovery missions like this and others. I think getting something for water recovery would be cool to especially if you were to have some retired seals to be part of a dive team to do things like looking for old ship wreckage that went down with massive amounts of cash holds finding just one would probably be both life changing as far as the cashes but also documenting the recovery of it.
That “radio” he found at 12:24 is actually a piece of the IFF receiver-transmitter. It helps the pilot determine who is a friendly fellow aircraft or enemy/unknown aircraft! Gotta love being an avionics mechanic
@HeavyDSparks- NORTH CAROLINA NEEDS YOU!!!!
Y'all are NEEDED in N. Carolina right NOW.
Are y'all going to take the Blackhawk out to Tennessee and Western North Carolina?
We sure could use your help doing rescue up here in Western North Carolina with that Blackhawk.
18:33 is where they find the plane. Your welcome
Hello my name is Bill Driessen I live in Wisconsin! That really don't matter! Real purpose of this is wondering if with the Disaster from the hurricane it sounds like they need alot of help! And from your Videos that you like helping out people in need! And from the news I have seen on UA-cam and What Cleetus maybe your team could help out ! Love watching your videos
Not Again... I used to really like Heavy D, before EVERY video became a paid commercial and he TOTALLY sold out! I was even going to buy my son merch at one point. Will he even read this? Does he even care?
I'm here to tell you he doesn't care endless you have something he can make money off.
Lemme guess? Democrat!?
Nice when you being quite but hear we are.
Lol comments only make him more money so yes he doesn't care . Just unsubscribe like I and others did and it might sting then
Quit whining and quit watching
D!! Can y'all help the people in the hurricane damage and fly in and save people, there was on guy and his son but his chopper is very small!!! You are the only one who can do this!
Brother, please take you and you’re crew and go help the hurricane Helen victims. God bless you.
You could help out with the Helene situation, and maybe go to bomber glacier in alaska later. It has a crashed B-29.
Will someone please tell heavy d we need him in north carolina. The government is letting people die after the hurricane came thru. We need to bring light to the catastrophe going on. Please I beg you to look into this. God bless
Wow this is nuts the fact that a lot of these comments are ppl ask in for help is alarming Ik the government can’t cover everything(they could but they have the excuse of budget n resources is hot garbage) but there’s ppl in nothing but struggle time n living hell this shows imo the government really isn’t helping..I pray for all the ppl in need of help not matter how little or big of help, help is still help we gotta pull together I wish I could help
@@230monsta they took money from the fema budget and used it on illegal aliens. It was just announced today by floridas attorney general Moody
They are moving in the resources need. Now sure military grunts may not be trained if like new. But have discipline and can follow orders. If longer term can be the leaders.
I was never first responder and never or rarely first on scene. Just utility cleanup at smaller more local weather.
With the huge catastrophe with thousands stranded in floods in mountains of TN. I don’t know if it’s possible for you to help out with your Choppers or other means but man it would be cool to watch you doing stuff out there. I would be happy to come along and help if you go.
Title as if they found a plane the military and nobody else could find. Title should be "We hiked to an old plane crash site in the desert".
It should be watch us do an advertisement wile we find trash on a hill
@HeavyDsparks... YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE... the citizens of Tennessee NEED your helicopter help. Biden and Harris have abandoned 1000 dead Americans over there. The floods have left them with ZERO supplies, no food, no water, no power. I BELIEVE IN YOU BRO!!!!? WHERE YOU AT?!?!?!
The F35 in the sky rn: 👀
Then where does their hug helicopter thing come in?
Watching another epic episode of HeavyD and the boys at sunrise in Hawaii. Sending out Aloha and our deepest respects to the people who make this channel possible. You guys have really stepped up big time over the last few years we've been watching the channel. Always stoked to see what's going on next. If you're ever out in Hawaii, get in touch, we'll show you a visit like you can't imagine.
Hey man I live in concord North Carolina about 1-2 hours away from me in western Carolina they have gone through a disastrous flood killing thousands the government is trying to cover up things up here they are stopping there own citizens from helping people in need i don’t know what you and your team can do but i thought I’d share it in hopes that there could be more awareness brought to this issue there are still thousands of people stranded in rural parts of western North Carolina. If you come across this post and can’t help or spread awareness please keep western Carolina in your prayers they are battling an environmental disaster on top of the government covering stuff up.
That's a heck of climb! What until you're an old fart like myself almost 70. I have copd for 22 years. I'm still going out climbing more hills now, but it still kicks my butt. You're coming up with some cool stuff, I watch, I have to give you and Dave a compliment. You've definitely move up town. I'm saying you guys are doing well and I'm very happy for you. I've been watching you from way back You've done some growing for sure. Keep recording and I'll keep watching. Be safe, be happy!

@@tomrobins_aka_fartinafitsee ya you won't be missed.
you guys have to check the ropes you used. i noticed there are places where the rope was on an edge and didn’t have edge protection/rope protector….
They need you in Tennessee with your helicopter
Kudos to the warthog pilots! Was in the desert with them the first gulf war. You can't ask for a better aircraft for support.
you have a good crew and i hope you do well. the A-10 Warthog is very respected air support among ground units. i knew of a crash on landing where only the pilots torso was found strapped to his seat. that particular craft had taken so much damage but made it to the designated landing strip and disintegrated on impact, i.e. controlled crash, loss of pilot, but he returned home to us as his final task. keep respect in mind when speaking about veterans. all veterans appreciate seeing a strong crew of young men who work and help like what you're doing here.
Hey, I can't find a better place to reach out and after hearing about other chopper owners issues running supplies and rescues to the hurricane victims. My thoughts went to this is right up your alley and that Cletus McFarland was out there helping too. I don't know what the status is but the Port Lurie Fire Chief told a vet pilot and small chopper owner to leave the area or else...
Damn he knew what he was doing with the thumbnail smh. That wreckage looked nothing like that
you clicked,hahaha

I was an aircraft mechanic at H.A.F.B specifically in landing gear. I worked on A-10, F-16 ,C-5, C-130 ,F-22. It woulda been kinda cool to see that landing gear I'd recognized working on. MInus the hike of course 6:37 btw that absolutely was not part of landing gear
I think the people of North Carolina and Tennessee could use you and your Blackhawk.
The "Reynolds wrap" you found is really called "Honeycomb" the aluminium is 90° to the surface and filled with foam making a very lightweight strong assembly.
It's good to see that even you have issues with your pressure washer pulsing lol
Isn't it a sign of governor springs worn out?
has a clogged jet in the carb
Advernture and a warthog.
Yep, Im clicking.
Same
Sorry about the disappointment
@@_JamesBrown You are so miserable...
@@bencreatesthings even more miserable after watching
Sucks that she crashed but super cool you got to see an A-10! As an A-10 lover up here in idaho, i am blessed to be next to the 190th fighter squadron! I always love going out to the Boise Airport and watch em fly! Nothing beats the sound of those TF34 engines she has!!! Much love from idaho!!!!
🙄🙄They don't made video's anymore. They just make ad's 🤬🤬
The app they are using turns a video into a commercial…. It’s a joke
Hey Dave, A-10 maintainer of 10 years here, that first piece you found at 7:00 is the Nacelle to engine thrust mount.
EDIT: Also the engine you found is one of the two TF34's, the fan is obviously missing, as well as the gearbox with all accessories.
Bro turning into whistlin diesel with these 10 to 20 minute videos every month or 2.
And
Having worked on the a-10 for over 10 years it's interesting to see the parts
That radio transmitter part you found with the two connectors that is actually the IFF transponder aircraft identification, but this part is the unclassified part and it gives out the altitude and the old four digit code for a particular aircraft. It's an obsolete part today.
Hey are you guys going to North Carolina? Cletus is there. Id come with to help.
Hey I seen a TikTok of a guy asking for help in his little town that's only entered by air from the storms. I believe it was somewhere north Carolina
I miss when your vids weren't just 20 minute long commercials.....
i hope you guys are helpin out in NC!
The government be like we crashed and it’s a special place to come hike to.
You crash and they be like you need to clean up every last scrap!
We need your helicopters and resources in Western North Carolina. We are having a logistical nightmare that I swear you guys would be a MAJOR benefit to have helping. It would be beyond words how grateful the Appalachian mountains would be. I wonder if this is something on your radar?
Pretty Rad, it hits home. I am a Aerospace Engineer and that Warthog had 2 of our TF34-GE-100 turbo fan engines on it.
Searching the crash site of the A-10 Warthog was an awesome exploring adventure, cheers HD and crew, mighty fine reel...
Ashville needs y'all people who are accessible by helicopter will pay y'all for help
Y’all should go to Asheville with your chopper. I’ll pitch in for a starlink. Those people are hurting folks. Almost no communication.
Guessing no hurricane rescue video
nah cant get enough views to many people doing rescues theyll steal his thunder!.
Heavy, we could really use your Blackhawk in the mountains of North Carolina to save people that are dying on top of the mountains! If you could please get there it will be awesome. They’re looking for people with helicopters.
Thanks Vince! I love my Sham-Wow! JayEffinC.....
Will you be helping those in Carolina? I think you can make a huge impact with those who are stranded due to road collapse and running out of food and supplies to live. They are completely cut off from society right now
"We are gonna leave things like we found them" ... Then proceeds to flip tires, tear heat shielding, and throws fond pieces all over ...
I hate that I love this guy so much. Gotta be Jealousy!
Heavy D, will you be taking the chopper and assisting in the hurricane search and rescue?
Are you guys going to be helping with the hurricane Helene relief with your helicopters because you have a fleet of helicopters if you used your three helicopters, you could seriously help them and I’m purely just curious
On Monday 3rd September 2001, USAF A-10A Thunderbolt II 78-0676/FT of the 75th FS, based at Pope Air Force Base, and assigned to 4th Fighter Wing at Seymour-Johnson AFB was destroyed when it crashed shortly after taking off from Nellis AFB. The A-10A impacted into a cliff near Mesquite, Virgin River Gorge, Clark County, Nevada. (At approximate Coordinates: 36°48′9″N 114°4′56″W. The official USAF AIB report gives the crash location as "Virgin River Gorge, north west Arizona, along Interstate 15, between St. George, Utah, and Mesquite, Nevada"). The pilot, Captain Frederick Sellers, ejected and was rescued by a Las Vegas police helicopter.
I was hoping to see some Blackhawk etc humanitarian aid after the storms in Tennessee, North Carolina, etc.
Thanks for the tour Dave and crew really a cool trip.
That thumbnail was quite the click bait. I've seen more trash in the middle of the desert. This should be called a rappelling lessons sponsored by OnX

If you see this look at Asheville NC and chimney rock NC. There water dam let go and destroyed everything. People are stranded bad bad bad
How about "WOW" SHAMMED AGAIN!
Someone get me a " bath tub" takes on a new meaning. I feel soaked!!!!
Im a skilled Warthog pilot,been flying it since 2013-11years now...Alot of kills! (In battlefield 4 on Xbox)
But seriously,imagine the ammount of money you can get if able to recover all of those parts!Wow!
Hey big guy we are needing help over here in NC AND TENN Noone has food water etc they are needing help getting supplies to Ashville and Boone north Carolina I don't know if you are able to come help it would be appreciated have a great day!!
@itsdieselgiveaway-checklist cletuss macfarlin went over to help he knows more about the details sir I'm in fla have friends up there
21yr A-10 mechanic...that "landing gear/control strut" you found was one of the main engine thrust mounts. The first engine you found is a main engine, TF-34 GE 100-A. The reason it looks small because it is a high by-pass fan.
They are looking for helicopter pilots to deliver supplies for the hurricane victims.
Always enjoy your adventures. You made this one look like a walk in the park, and I am sure it was not. What a gnarly terrain. Thank you for your genuine reality and your hard work.
What was the name of that offroad APP again? and Again?
Look another cry baby.

@@jerrywilcox9890 where TF you looking that you are seeing crying babies?
A once in a lifetime trip for all us
Imagine going on a pleasant hike and you just get wiped the hell out by an entire A-10 crashing into you.
I'll take it! Freedom birb decided it was my time. :P Rather have a F-22 but a Warthog will do!
what you guy's do is nothing short of EPIC ..you all seem to have a great time.can;t wait for the next one.stay safe my friend.
