Nice video. I think that was the same pilot who flew the crew around to make the Parts Unknown episode in Columbia.

There's a pretty funny story behind this [s]DC-3[/s] BT-67 in Columbia:

I think this is cooler than any crowd killer, but I have no virtue to signal:

That bottom picture looks like something that could kill several crowds.

Perfect gun platform - slow and stable.

To quote people at Basler in Oshkosh:
The funny story of a....mishandled grenade? Was all made up to cover the fact that it was voluntary blown up by whatever anti Colombia governmental faction of the time (or narco people, can’t remember)

The guy from basler who did most of the training down there had very little good to say about their military pilot flying skills on the 67 They were difficult students to teach and I gather not very high timed.

"No village/hamlet or outpost that was protected by the AC-47 was ever lost to the Vietcong"

lol just the whole country, oooooooooh snap 

There was a DC3 err, turbine version, probably running guns, while I was overseas. Only flew at night. Funny.

Also, another bird that only flew at night... Spooky, a not so docile AC130.

  Lots of dead ISIS and the hands of the AC130 gun bunny’s.
