A double OH YEA :thumbup::thumbup:
Is this the one that they call "Puff: The Magic Dragon"? :clap:
Or was that just an earlier version of what this is?
I like big guns. But are those beards regulation?
:D Perhaps that weapon is owned by the "Redneck Militia"... :clap:
Bob, Puff was the C-47 used in Viet Nam. The one pictured is a modified C-130.
Thanks, Ron! :thumbup:
But they both accomplished the same goad: put LOTS of ordnance on-target! :bowdown:
That's a whole lot of fire power..:yikes: and can cover any situation...from minor to overkill....
:shocked: More like from "Overkill"; to " :shocked: "
Here is a great description of the various gunships in Viet Nam. I was witness to one pass of one of the early versions. In just one pass alongside a very dense jungle trail there was absolutely nothing left above several inches in height after Puff made her pass. Also witnessed one flare drop over the coast. Best fireworks show ever!

Another one of my favs. The A 10 is interesting because the top brass hates it because it's not sexy. But hey, sexy is in the eyes of the beholder.

Nice guns, but will they fit on my Spyder?

Here is the gun from an A 10.

That is a special ops plane and airmen are special ops personnel. Depending on exactly where the plane is based and what contingency plan they are supporting they may be allowed to have beards.
OK Folks, enough with the unobtanium. Let's come back down to earth!
A bunch of patience, a bit of thinking outside the box, and 5 target loads later the 105 year old SxS is still intact. I think I may have to actually use it occasionally. :yes:
:clap: :congrats: :2thumbs:
And the pilots absolutely love 'em. These plane bring them home even when they are all shot to hell.
