      Well, back in 1970, It was "strongly suggested" that we "lose the nose art". I have a huge feeling that because Vietnam was the first "TV war" that this was an early knee jerk PC reaction. All I know is the murals, etc. kind of got banned. We all Wanted to have them!!!

    We were flown in to a mountain top strip by a C130. Then we were flown out a few days later. Reving the engines so hard thought they would blow up. We took off and everyone slid backwards, and on the climb the tree tops scraped the bottom of the plane. Best pilots in the world including the Huey Choppers. C130s built in the 50s are still a workhorse of the military. Hats off to the pilots

    People tend to focus on all the firepower this thing has but it was those cameras (and the guys running them) that really made it the GOAT. Most of the time getting air support meant a lot of dicking around back and forth to get everything set up. With these things half the time you'd ask for something and they'd already have seen what you were talking about and be set up and ready to go. The A-10 was the only fixed wing aircraft that even came close in terms of "user friendliness", at least in my limited experience.

    My old man was in Vietnam around the time they introduced the AC-130. He's told me some stories since I've gotten older. He said you could barely tell they were there, but when they opened up it was like taking a marker and drawing a line from the sky to the ground (tracers.) Unless they fired the big guns, then it was two flashes then two big booms.

      Chris Lindsey Never saw Puff or Snoopy while in 4 Corp, heard them, just a steady Burrr, the Vietnamese were very superstitious and some believed these were Flying Dragons as the rate of fire and every 5th to 10th round being a tracer, depending how fast you wanted to burn the barrels, they saw the tracers, almost a continuous stream from the sky to the designated target, believe it was 3 minis on each side. As the plane continued forward, the minis changed targets and it was believed that the Flying Dragon was really walking. Truly a wonderful plane that saved many lives, fly across a football field and place a round within every sq. ft.
