Talk:Grumman OV-1 Mohawk

Latest comment: 1 year ago by Raywode in topic Airworthy list very much out of date.

Specifications OV-1D but 3-view shows OV-1A

edit

The 3-view drawing under Specifications shows an OV-1A with original short wings (span 42 ft) common also to the OV-1C. Also, article does not sufficiently detail that the extended wings (span 48 ft) were fitted to basic OV-1B and OV-1D variants (see Aerofiles.com etc). I've tried amending the 3-view image File: syntax in accordance with editing help article to add a relevant caption, but no visual change displayed in Preview - can someone help with suitable edit(s).

If I understand what you want to do, you must add the bold text to the following syntx: [[File:Grumman OV-1 Mohawk 3-view.jpg|right|300px|thumb|"your wanted text here"]]. --McChizzle (talk) 22:40, 11 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
Thanks, that does work. However, my new citation doesn't seem to work (I got it from another Grumman article) :-) PeterWD (talk) 23:30, 11 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
Fixed. The citation template sucks; I never use it. --McChizzle (talk) 00:03, 12 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Airworthy list very much out of date.

edit

Airworthy list very much out of date. Mohawk Technologies who owned several of these appears to be out of business; their website mohawk-tech.com no longer exists. The example that was owned by the Carolina Air Museum is now at the Hickory Air Museum (see their site); while it may be airworthy it doesn't appear to have flown since arriving at Hickory.
