C47 Goonie Bird My first flight. They are still in service in some places. Not bad after (not sure) 80 years.
Flew in one twice,once from Da Nang to Saigon and a week later back to Da Nang.
First flight sat on canvas seats paraell to walls, second time sat on hard aluminum floor and when we touched down it was like getting dropped from 3 ft. unto my butt, lol.

Giant wild tamarind, super hardwood, and great for slabing !! This one was one of the largest in town. Its a beast and quite a challenge !! Laying on 4 properties. Crushed trailor full of stuff that im trying no to crush anymore. Couple houses very close and no access for machinery!! Floor jacks, come alongs, peavy hooks, man power and every saw I got !! Irma is giving up a fortune in hard wood lumber. Urban logging, wooo hooo !!!

Did you ever see the C47 used as a gunship in Nam? It was slow enough to be good at it.

No I never seen puff the magic Dragon but it was legendary what with several mini guns and I believe 20mm cannon also.

I'm an old s**t that thinks the word awesome is way overused but when a mini gun opens up it is totally awesome!!
