SAW ONE WITH THAT HERE AT AN AIRSHOW IN KC, MO AND IT WAS THE MOST AWESOME SIGHT!!! I was at that show, Nate...We were in my wife's office building downtown on the 29th floor...the Blue Angels flew right past the building...scared the crap out of her and shook everything! That rocket assisted take off was pretty cool too!

That is an AC-130! Awesome! My Buddy just ended his training and is on duty flying SH-64 in the Navy. He first trained on a T-36 Charlie. Then got helos.
Always remember: "There are old pilots and bold pilots, but no old, bold pilots!"
Good for you and good luck!
