The first film on this video, produced by the Air Force at Tuy Hoa Air Base, documents activities of Lt Col Preston S. Flanagan of the 31st TFW who flew the same C-47 aircraft that he had flown during World War II in Africa and Asia. Video opens with an interview with Col. Flanagan about his experiences with the C-47. Includes Col. Flanagan's preflight inspection (walk-around) of the aircraft. There are excellent exterior and interior shots of the aircraft on the gound and in flight. Good views of the cockpit and instruments. Please note! With the exception of the interview, there is no narration. A music soundtrack has been added. "The Intruders," which features excellent scenes aboard the EC-47, is a narrated film directed at radio operators emphasizing the importance of encoding messages that could fall into the wrong hands. Illustrates the cat and mouse game played by the viet cong who have set up small listening posts to intercept messages and U.S. efforts to electronically find and destroy such listening posts. The next film is titled "Antique Airlines Tan Son Nhut" and covers activities of the 360th Tactical Electronic Warfare Squadron (TEWS) aircrews in support of Combat Cougar (airborne radio direction finding) utilizing the EC-47 specially equipped for the mission. The last part of this video features AC-47 operations in Vietnam. Includes scenes from combat missions.

  • puff the magic dragon floats like a butterfly stings like a beaver :P

  • yeah MW2 is really fucking everything up for us kids who knew about this "stuff" before MW2.now its all about C-130's and the G-36E and everyone knows the G3A1 sucks or any gun for that matter.and for this reason i hate MW2 and MW2 players.

  • I'd then parachute out and find a woman to RAPE.

  • If I got behind one of those guns, I wouldn't be able to stop, i'd kill anyone and anything, adult child man or woman, animal dog cat horse and cow, i'd end up turning the gun around and sawing the plane in half and i'd kill the crew and ammo loader with my side arm.

  • @Kill001 Yeah me too. but the MW2 came and ruined the face of the C-130

  • @robloxguggi :(

    I loved the C-130 ever since I saw it on sum obscure military documentary a long while back...

    At first I was like, "that plane is seeeeeeexy" and then I saw the angel flares and I was like :D

  • @Kill001 Yep ... I just hope they won't include this aircraft in the game ... I saw that after MW2 was released the AC-130 videos had a spike going up as soon as they "knew" what the AC-130 was. Even in the C-130 and EC-130 etc. videos they still say

    " ENEMY AC-130 ABOVE "

  • @robloxguggi lol, probably after Black Ops is released...

  • Ok guys... In about a year or so this video will probably be spammed with Call of duty no lifes.

  • from spooky to spectre
