Paul LeTourneau’s Amazing A-10 Warthog

[GSNadmin]

One warbird regular that always shows up at popular giant-scale events, Paul LeTourneau of Oconto, WI., is best known in the RC world for his amazingly big multi-engine aircraft. Paul travels around the country and makes it to the Warbirds and Classics in Fond du Lac, WI, down to the Warbirds Over Delaware in Newark, DE (where he is the Air Boss), and he attends several other events in between.



For years, Paul has been campaigning with his truly giant, ⅕-scale B-25 Mitchell and B-26 Widow Maker bombers, and more recently, he can be seen tearing up the traffic pattern with his equally impressive monster-scale jets. We caught up with Paul to get the backstory on his amazing Fairchild Republic A-10 Warthog powered by a pair of JetCat 110-SX turbines.
