I like that vintage wind in your hair type of feeling it gives me. :D

Oscar 2, one thing I have always wondered about is the Lomchevak potential of a push pull plane. What if you shut down the front enging, went full power on the rear, and then went full control? I won't try it but if we could borrow your plane we might talk Bud Granley into it.

A crew chief buddy of mine once pointed out that the Cessna O-2 also known as the model 337 shares the same name as the Air Force form you fill out whenever a plane has been crashed or damaged! :D

You can fly my plane if I can fly yours!
Hey they didn't call it the Sky Pig for nothing!


On the other hand, I'm usually the only real combat veteran aircraft at most airshows. The people really like to see the pictures I have of the combat damage it suffered from AK rounds. That's some low flying to pick up AK fire!
