The Clipper of the Clouds and its sequel, Master of the World, by Jules Verne, springs to mind, although Verne’s Rabor dropped bombs, which makes more sense than firing cannons from an airship, Jeez my mind is ticking over today, what did I have for breakfast?……
Interesting. The cannon itself “Bams” but the shell “Whams”. Yesterday the author said the cannon “Raps” but I didn’t hear any Rap music coming from it. Did anyone else?

Why God! You has finally answered our prayers and finally appeared! But wait, why is you bombing us? Is you here to smite us for we sins?
