The last AC-130U Spooky gunship to retire, aircraft 0128, also known as ‘Big Daddy’, is parked on the flightline at Hurlburt Field, Florida, June 26, 2020. On June 18, 2020, Big Daddy made history by becoming the first Spooky to ever receive a black letter initial. A black letter initial means that before a flight there were no discrepancies on Big Daddy’s status paperwork. (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Hailey M. Ziegler)
