BarbiesBoyfriend: A+ for your spelling

. Some old airframes remain around what was the helicopter base at Da Nang, but that area is very heavily polluted with chemicals left by our American brothers, so much so that I wouldn't care to go near it. I bet you went to Hoi An too didn't you? That place is the pits. Jeeze, if you want to visit interesting places in VN you should just ask...
Sorry, old transport planes aren't my thing, and I have no idea of the identification of any of the Hercules airframes at Tan Son Nhat. If you like I could find out, though we still need your tourist dollars.
jonwilly: You mean 'up north' as in near Laos? Thailand is a complete mess, crazies in both the north and south. That's what you get for being an American puppet state - your craziness doesn't spread, it just grows bigger
in situ. It's the domino effect in reverse. I love irony.
