Warbird lands on 1-10

Apparently an O-1 made an Emergency Landing on I-10 in Florida, due to running out of fuel. I don't know the ID of the aircraft or who owns it.

Another picture of it, showing the tail number.

More Aeronca L-16 than O-1.

After I posted. I was trying to ID it and figured I had misidentified the type, and yeap it appears I did by your post.......

I can make out 48491 on the tail and LH-491 on the fuselage, but still can't ID the aircraft or owner.

OK figured some of it out it's a L-16B Grasshopper as yall already know, tail number 48-491, buzz number LH-491, aka N6710C, USAF aircraft painted in an USA scheme.
