A-10 pilot "Killer Chick" Kim Campbell recalls saving her own life after her plane was hit above Baghdad in 2003. Campbell is the author of “Flying in the Face of Fear.”
That is my favorite Airplane in the US Military weaponry & to have a testament to the survivability of said airplane is a testament to the engineering & development of it. I love the A-10 Warthog.
Where did KC land after the hits? In OIF I, I held short of the active for an A-10 piloted by a female that was flying less than 90% of her fuselage and was calling a Mayday on Guard. I think it was in Tallil (Imam Ali AB) or Tikrit, I can't remember. Thing went so fast in those days. Especially for Army rotary wing. Such a blur, yet such an amazing year. Things make more sense when you're doing your best to survive while others are doing their best to kill you! 😃

Courage is the ability to move forward in spite of the fear.
..the A10 I saw...I held my breath....the cannon stopped forward motion...it slows it.❤

You made all us women proud. You did great fighting for our freedom.
Her dad was an Air Force pilot and a two term mayor of San Jose.

As far as combat damage this is like a nose bleed for A-10 damage, why all the male pilots with real damage not praised? Oh wait DEI, I get it.
Bravo Zulu KC!!
