Registered to New York, but still closer than Seattle or Neptune.

The military serial - 112386 (51-12386) - belongs to an L-19 / O-1,
whether it actually belongs to ~this~ airframe or not... Also not
sure about the 'OE-1', O-1E would make scads more sense, though this
one seems to be an O-1D.

Cessna Model 305 was designated L-19 in Army service and OE in USMC service.
The designation on the tail is OE-1, the Bureau Number 112386 belongs to a
SNJ-6. Under the Tri-Service system the designation became O-1.
