| Description |
Marietta, April 21, 2011 – A Georgia Guard Chinook Helicopter (CH47D) sling loads an OV-1 Mohawk airplane from the flight line at Dobbins Air Reserve Base to its new home at the Aviation Wing of the Marietta Museum of History located at the corner of South Cobb Drive and Atlanta Road. This aircraft was one of the first productions “A” model Mohawks which was later converted to the “C” model and flown for years by the Georgia Army National Guard. The mission of the Mohawk was to fly aerial reconnaissance and surveillance, side looking airborne radar (SLAR), photo, and infrared. The aircraft was armed on limited occasions during the Vietnam conflict. Upon retirement of the Mohawk mission in 1990, the airplane was put on display at the 171st Aviation Battalion, Georgia Army National Guard located on Dobbins Air Reserve Base. Col. (Ret) Dennis Brown, the Georgia Guard State Historian and one of the last pilots to fly the Mohawk, says the move of the Mohawk will add another key aircraft to the museum and give the community an opportunity to share in the rich history of the Georgia Guard. “We are very excited and delighted to continue the rich heritage and legacy of Army aviation in Georgia especially considering Georgia was one of only two states that flew this aircraft.” (Photo by Sgt. Cox, Georgia State Defense Force) |
