    ALPENA, MI – The Michigan Air National Guard made history today, Aug. 5, when it landed modern military aircraft on a Northern Michigan highway, officials said.


    Crews from several military units landed four A-10 Thunderbolt II aircraft and two C-146 aircraft on M-32 near Alpena, videos show, in what was the first time modern U.S. Air Force aircraft have landed on a civilian roadway in the United States. The mission was dubbed Thunder Landing Zone (LZ).
