And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

The A-10 Warthog's daddy. You can see the family resemblance. OV-1 MoHawk
OV-1 is an observation platform, essentially a flying 19-inch rack. The canopy bulges out on each side so the crew can look almost straight down. We had them tied down on the ramp at Love Field and when the wind blew the correct direction, the plane would lift.
Ya gotta admire the guy who can handle three pieces of tail at the same time.
