The L-19 Birddog was the winner of a 1950 US Army contest for a
Liaison and artillary directing aircraft. Based on the Cessna 170 it
was the first all metal fixed-wing aircraft ordered by the US Army
since the separation of the USAF.
Operated eventually by all four US services, over 3,200 examples
of all variants were produced. It had an extensive US service life
from 1950 until 1974, plus service in many other countries. In 1962
the designation was changed from L-19 to O-1.
This CD contains three flight manuals for several military variants
of the Birddog. This CD has been copied from the original flight
manuals and retains any colour pages.
