The OV10 thread had me thinking about putting an old plane into service for a cheaper counter insurgency role. I quite like the OV10, but for some reason I think to Skyraider would be more robust, would carry a bigger payload, and would hence be more suited to the role. It even has the cabin to carry a couple people if you want it to if you take the AD5 fuselage with two pilots and room for observers or whomever.
Any comments on why it would’t be a good idea?
