I have seen a few OV1s during my time, but like Doug all of them were OD. That one at Biggs Field is the only one I have ever seen that was painted gray.

Well,

they changed to gray sometime around the early eighties, if memory serves- the last green one I'd seen up close was in 1980 or 81, when I was reunited with the OV-1s around 1987/88, they'd acquired a few more bumps and were gray, flying hush-hush missions out of Wiesbaden-Erbenheim and they were definitely gray in SWA in 1990/91.

Cheers,

Jens O.
