Is Spooky safe to take downtown?

Frank was correcting the spelling of "Spectre" not saying that the U model
is not "Spooky"

"Spooky", Tex, seems to have become a synonym for
"fixed wing gun ship". The few times we trained with
an AC-130 supporting, the grunts all referred to it as
"Spooky".
Besides, it is as official as such things get that the
AC-130U is "Spooky" instead of "Specter".

Yes, you served on a Spectre, but the AC-130U is "Spooky".

Would you believe the Air Force on this?

The AC-130H's call sign is "Spectre." The AC-130U's call sign is
"Spooky. "
