This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

I have heard rumors that armed OV-1s were employed, unoficially of course, South of the border, for drug interdiction flights.

First time I saw a Mohawk was during Airsho '81 in Harlingen, and to say the least, I was impressed when one of them took off and climbed like there was no gravity...

They can keep telling themselves that from their home-squadron bars while the rest of us are out doing the real business for America.


Heh, tell us how you really feel Randy.

My old man was a light-gray boy at Langley in the old days, he got out in 1990. While it's a different Air Force now, at that point they were the tip of the spear!
