I was the pax in a Cessna O-2A Skymaster that was accompanying N31004. It was an interesting experience: the Oscar Deuce's slowest speed is faster than the Piper's fastest speed, so when the pilot brought us alongside and slowed to allow me to snap this series of pics, a speed warning alarm began sounding indicating we were going too slow. I wasted no time getting my photos, and we then sped back up. And then I just enjoyed the wonderful privilege of flying in an Oscar Deuce.

What a great shot! Plus, O2/Skymasters are getting rare! Very COOL! Hoosier Cheers!

Howdy, C.W. It was a great experience! Initially, it was to be a Bronco but I was not at all disappointed when I found out it was going to be a Skymaster. I took some snaps from the pax seat that I'll send via e/m. (Wave)

Thank you,Gary! Looking forward to the email! In my book, an O-2 is every bit as good as an OV-10!

Cliff, Hundo, Alien, Dave, Viv, Uwe, Kyle .... Ultra superb Q pics to you now for next twelve days. Check e/m frequently. All kinds (historic, commercial, VIP-High Profile, and esp. military, etc.) so keep what you want and dump the rest. All are yours for personal viewing, but quite a few are being published by various agencies / owners, etc. so I'll try to make a note in the e/m but as a precaution, just inquire before you share. Thanx.
