Cessna L-19/O-1 Bird Dog G-PDOG
A real airplane - takes me back to my days as a FAC in 1969.
Nice shot and good Cessna aircraft..
Beautiful shot...!
Could someone throw some light on what the pylons are for under-wing and the little thingy sticking out on the back..?

Those pylons usually mounted smoke rockets used to mark targets... the other - I'm not sure what you see with "the little thingy sticking out on the back"?
I believe that 'little thingy' would be the tail wheel..........
at about $100 an hour, it's a great flight experience, Roy! Go for a flight. A Cessna 150 will do. And a great picture Dave *****
It was a fun airplane to fly (in 1970)! Would love to do it again.
I think I will, William, it sounds like fun!
Roy... I think you might have figured out what the "little thingy" was!
There is also a vertical fin-like object sticking up from the tail boom, not sure what that is...
Roy, that could only be an antenna... for the military frequency radios in use during that time? It appears to have replaced the loop type antenna.
Ok, cool, thanks Cliff.
What a well kept bird!
