Photo Comment

This is the original, full-scale factory engineering mock-up of the OV-10A that was made in Columbus, Ohio and was acquired in pieces by the FWAM in 2001 from a collector in California. Apart from the very short, 30-foot wingspan, the most obvious difference between this mock-up and the production aircraft is that the sponsons are parallel to the wing instead of downward sloping.
