The O-1 reminded me. Don't OV-10s operate off of carriers some? I
suppose too, you could consider the P-51D trials unusual.
During the Korean War, a friend of mine flew some staff officers to a
carrier in an L-17 (military version of the Navion) to help plan the
Inchon invasion. Apparently, there were several Navions involved and it
happened more than once. They had no arresting gear, but probably didn't
need it, either.
