Former Dallas Cowboy Chad Hennings' most interesting stories aren't about football. They're about cramming his big frame into the cockpit of an A-10 Thunderbolt (a.k.a. Warthog) to fly missions over Iraq during the first Gulf War.

Chad will speak May 15 at the annual Warbirds Over Addison event at the Cavanaugh Flight Museum at Addison Airport. Barksdale Air Force Base is sending an A-10 over so Chad can give a walk-around tour of the plane.
