I've got a new toy!

Downloaded and started repaints on one of the coolest aircraft ever built, the Cessna 337 Skymaster!

The package I downloaded had both Civil and Military versions of the Skymaster. The military bird is an Air Force O-2, and I'm currently researching what branches flew the O-2 during the Vietnam Conflict as a basis for repaints. Thanks for taking a look. :)

It was primarily the 20th Tactical Air Support Squadron, USAF, that flew the O-2 in Viet Nam.

Cool repaints!  ;)

Nice tip @Club508 If I ever end up finally having the time to figure out how to paint I'll def remember that!  :)

And thanks for the history lesson @U4EA  :)
