I need a picture of an O-2 Skymaster in flight suitable for use in the header graphic of the O-2 Registry. I know someone here has a suitable picture, heck at least one of you own one of these beautiful birds <--- gratuitous complimenting in action :)

Hi Scott..while you're focused on O-2's, we had a thread awhile back that
brought to light some info which would be helpful in updating the Registry.

68-11055
Was at LSFM 1997 thru summer 2001. Skymstr02 tried loading
pics of her but they didn't come through. Might be willing to
provide photos...no pic of that bird in the Registry.

67-21365
67-21404
Navy version O-2's in formation, photo example provided by
RickH. Also sale of 21365 which is still not in FAA records
Neither birds in Registry..might ask Rick about the photo 2
fer 1 shot! and history info..

67-21431
OD's bird, not in Registry

Painting those little nicks...
www.warbirdinformationexchange.org/phpB ... 35&start=0

Hope this helps some...Thanks for your efforts Scott!

Hows this? Now sure of the owner or serial. All Black with red trim. In fact, a nice young lady was flying it at Midland last year and came up with a dead battery on Sunday.

The lady with the black O2 is named Karen. She used to fly a YO-55. Can't think of her last name. DZ can you help, I think she belongs to the Conroe Wing ?

Her last name is Brinkley, she hangers the airplane in Boerne, TX, and lives in the San Antonio area. The aircraft serial is 67-21363, and was with the 20th TASS in Viet Nam.
