Lagniappe is gone now, but his memory lives on.
The FAA failed to understand our need of the M-60 on your Cessna
Puff wins! :-)
Loved the B 17, enjoyed the blow torch, but this is my idea of a proper aircraft. Old Slow and Deadly. When I win the lottery a DC3/C47 is on my list,and these days the gunship version makes a lot of sense. Of course a gun nosed B25 would work too.
The A-26 Invader was the ultimate, but that's way down the line yet.
I was thinking along the lines of clearing 270....So yeah, an A 26 would work fine.
Would you settle for a custom paint job and some LEDs that blink rapidly?
Naw...got to be real, so I can rain down justice on the evil-doers below.
I don't think I have ever seen a Cessna with a twin fifty ball turret, maybe you could crowd fund a conversion?That would be cool.
Go for it. We won't tell. Oh yeah, train up Murphy as the gunner.
Saw Puff working out near Bien Hoa one night. Hear the plane, see the tracers and then the noise. Sure glad I wasn't in the target zone.
Eglin or Hurlburt?! Hurlburt has a mother lode of unique aircraft on static display (Air Commando after all).
These are Eglin...but I didn't miss Hurlburt. Stick around.
