I love the OV-10’s. If I had the money, I would love to get one. I remember being on the ground in Camp Pendleton hearing the OV-10’s flying between the mountains and flying over you when you least expect it. I used to watch then doing runs at the range. Dropping jumpers from the back…
Yeah they are definitely a unique plane! It's incredible what Cal-Aero Fab is doing with those now. They have a few of them lined up for restoration there.
Yeah, I recall talking to an "old timey" ODA (Special Forces) guy at jump school. He told me jumping from a Bronco was his favorite. As I recall, he said that you lie die in the tube and slide out the back. Cool looking aircraft. Always reminded me of a P-38.
A friend of mine flew OV-10's out of Sembach somewhat before you did. He also was a ground FAC for a while. Before that he flew A-7D's out of Davis Monthan.
Outfit that with new equipment so you can use laser guided missiles and get that bad boy back in action. The government is delusional for retiring these awesome aircraft.
I worked with a guy who flew the OV-10 in South America working for Dynecorp. The aircraft was equipped with an external spray rig. He said a mechanic always flew with him and they were always armed. That tells you what type of missions they had.

Retired, but a part time Santa Claus!

I wonder what they were spraying....
@@AdventureAir Either pot or coca plants
At one time there were videos on here of the spray rigged planes.
เห็นจากตรงนี้ก็เดาต่อไปคิดว่าเป็นโครงการ black project
No, it's not.
I haven't heard anybody call it a Corona airport since the 1970s
We call it Corona airport all the time..
