I miss it sometimes, but more so the people. Every time I hear the sound of rotor blades I run outside looking for the source. Still get goosebumps from it. I know the grunts will always be particular to the Cobra and Huey bubbas, but for me nothing beats the rumble a flight of 53s make.

We barely ever got Rotor CAS so I'm more privy towards 53s and 46s than Cobra and Huey.
In Haditha we had almost all platforms in the area at any one time, just never specifically for us. Only thing I never saw was any Little Birds. But we had 46/47s, 53s, Cobras, Huey's, Apache, and occasionally a Kiowa.
