The Cessna O-1E/L-19 Bird Dog was initially constructed near to scale, with general dimensions within 3%, in Max 13. It features a good level of exterior detail and moderate cabin detailing. Animated components include the propeller, control surfaces (ailerons, flaps, elevators, rudder), wheels, landing gear retraction, flaps, landing gear doors, ailerons, elevators, and rudder. This model is available in multiple formats for diverse users and comes with various liveries. It's suitable for in-flight or airport ground animations, video or simulation use, and populating airport scenes. The Bird Dog was crafted by Cessna to fulfill the US Army's order for a light all-metal fixed-wing aircraft for observation and liaison tasks. It saw extensive service in the Vietnam War before being transferred to the Civil Air Patrol for search and rescue missions. Following several accidents, these planes were sold to private owners, with many now operated by private pilots, flying museums, or displayed statically at museums.
