You can bet they never sent an OV-10 to fly over the former Soviet Union and
take pictures of things they  weren't supposed to see.

Ha!  Ha!.  The OV-10 has been adapted to do crop spraying, and has been alleged
to have flown over Cuba.  They are a nice little plane, with a 110 cf extra
space that could be used much like a lysander, for carrying "things" around.
(the space is behind the cockpit, below the wings and into the tail of the
fusalage)

If you are going to complain like that, a U2 is a Switzer C133 or so, with a
engine strapped into it!

I've built a lego model of a OV10, and it looks _right_ cool in all black :).
It would make a nice "spy plane" :)

(...) I'm sure it would be perfectly nice... until you passed over a SAM battery. I'll take a good ol' SR-71 any day. :^D ~M (24 years ago, 6-Sep-00, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.general)
