Re: Aircraft/airplane/helicopter Pilot (air Interdiction Age
Had a strange visitor drop by the local FBO to refuel. It was a Rockwell OV-10 Bronco painted completely black with no markings of any kind and rigged with the most elaborate aerial spraying equipment I ever saw. The airplane looked like it just came off the production line and even the tires smelled new. Had two large external pylon tanks that looked like part of the spray system and lots of stainless tubing running all over the place. The Pilot seemed a bit irritated we were checking out his ride and appeared to young to have been a Nam Fac Driver. He also was packing and paid for his fuel with a US Gov. credit card. Anyone have a clue what this is all about?
