AC-130 Gunship: US Most Powerful Ground Attack Aircraft Ever Made

The AC-130 training simulator being delivered to the AFB for crew training, yesterday was reported by a local t.v. station to be stopping traffic.
They also said a "real" AC-130 is scheduled to arrive later in the month.
However they didn't say if it is only for a visit, for training, to stay, or what. Nor did they refer to it by its nickname . . .
