Re: Fictional VTOL Grumman AO-1H Mohawk

From what I've read & heard, the OV-1 had some nasty single engine ops traits, so the triple fins are probably for engine-out stabilty. Just a guess on my part.

Great find Mark!!

The t-tail arrangement surely puts a different perspective on the Mohawk!
I wonder why Grumman engineers opted for the triple-fin tail arrangement? Stability? Weight?

Thanks for sharing mate

Re: Fictional VTOL Grumman AO-1H Mohawk

I'm feeling both extremely honored and unconfortably ashamed that one of my re-creations could be interpreted as a real-life aircraft...

All I can say is: Sorry... and thanks!

I was still in and flying UH-1s during that time and knew with a nanosecond that it was a fake. Good job though.
 
Re: Fictional VTOL Grumman AO-1H Mohawk

I've been looking at it and I just can say: congratulations!

Great work Stéphane it really has the feel of an aerospace ad. I love your art.

Thanks my friends! Antonio, I always strive to give the fake ads the feel of the real stuff. Glad you appreciated that!
