This Bird Dog was delivered in Jan. 1952 and served primarily as a training platform accumulating more than 10,000 flying hours. The aircraft is now on display at the NASM Udvar-Hazy Center and has been restored as 'Mobile Miss', an O-1A that was assigned to the 74th Aviation Company (Aerial Surveillance) near Saigon in 1972.
