i was the crew chief of an O-2 cessna skymaster aircraft in Vietnam 1970--1971.I would like to add to this video what a exceptional airplane this was. The engine were powered by twin Continental Io 360d engines .Very strong and dependable. An incident that happened to my pilots when they were out on a reconnaissance flight.The oil breather line on the front engine broke which caused the front engine to lose all the oil.The front prop went to feather and the engine shut down.The pilots were able to land the aircraft safely with the rear engine. These airplanes would direct fire from f4's and b52's to support troops on the ground.They were called FAC (foward air control) planes.They played a major roll with the Air Force in Vietnam.
Maybe the dirt soda cleared your throat. I seeing this plane in the movie Bat 21!
A wonderful video. Happy New Year.
Just watched that. Excellent shots of a lot of different aircraft. Skymaster is awesome.
I’m restoring an O-2A just up the freeway from you in Redlands. Would love to meet up sometime and see if you have any spare parts for sale.
Not to take away from Fred, but I think the video inserts and added pictures go a long way to enhance the presentation. Could we please see a picture of Greg?
Greg does a great job - I have and will try and get him in front of the camera. We try and keep these informative and not too technical - your comments are appreciated
@Walking in Yorkshire and Beyond he is really camera shy - but I am trying to get him to make an appearance.
