I can't recall any off-hand, at least none that aren't documentaries. The first Transformers had a gunship scene, but I don't know if we ever saw the inside of the plane.

If I recall, the crewmen actually riding with the weapons only load them (at least the Bofors gun and the howitzer, I imagine they'd just have a drums for the miniguns.) Someone in the cockpit aims the weapons, and the pilot pulls the trigger.
