  Warbird Alley: Cessna O-2 Super Skymaster
The Cessna O-2 Super Skymaster was ordered by the U.S. Air Force in 1966 to replace the Cessna O-1 until a purpose-built aircraft could be put into service as a Forward Air Control and light observation aircraft.
Because the Skymaster was a two seater, one crewmember could be freed from piloting the aircraft to concentrate on the difficult mission of Forward Air Control, which included such diverse tasks as marking targets for air strikes, giving strike briefings to incoming attack pilots, and avoiding ground threats.

 CESSNA 337 SKYMASTER: JUST SAY THREE-THREE-SEVEN
Skymaster pilots are not concerned with such ditch-darting but are aware that the airplane will not climb out unless properly configured.
Cessna sold a total of 510 M337s (known as O-2As and O-2Bs) to the military--which gained the reputation of being almost literally bulletproof.
Cessna called the 337 a sixplace airplane (and the P337 a five-placer), but to carry a half dozen people means having them hold their luggage on their laps because there's no room left for baggage.

Cessna parts are high, but most of us get them from other sources for most things, and save a lot doing so; in effect when we do, we pay about the same as anyone else not buying directly from Cessna.
It had the same engines as the Skymaster but it was a real twin because it had the engines on the wings and it was cheeper.
The vast majority of Skymaster accidents with which I am familiar were not the result of problems inherent in the airplane but, rather, deficiencies in pilot technique.

 Cessna Skymaster - Definition, explanation
The Cessna Skymaster is an innovative twin-engine civil utility aircraft built in a push-pull configuration.
In 1994 the Cuban exile group Hermanos al Rescate (Brothers to the Rescue) used Skymasters to drop life-saving supplies to rafters attempting to cross the Florida Straits to defect from Cuba.

 Airliners.net: Cessna 336 & 337 Skymaster
Through their pushpull engine configuration the twin boom Cessna 336 and 337 were designed to overcome conventional twins' problems of poor engine out asymmetric flight handling characteristics.
Cessna called the layout concept Centre Line Thrust, as the nose mounted tractor and rear fuselage mounted pusher engine eliminated asymmetric handling problems normally experienced when one of a twin's engines fails.
Cessna also built more than 500 337s as O-2s for the US Air Force, used largely in the Forward Air Control role.

The push-pull CLT concept finally became popular with the retractable gear C-337 Skymaster that was developed in 1964 and introduced in 1965.
To eliminate the cooling fan (from the C-336) a cowl flap was mounted on each side of the rear cowl to regulate the cooling air flow.
Cessna Service Letter 65-43 dated April 19, 1965 stated, "to improve the stall characteristics of the Model Super Skyrnaster, the inboard flap travel has been reduced from 40° to 25°.

 History of the Oscar Deuce
The 0-2 was an all metal, four seat business aircraft designed by Cessna to be easy to fly, low in cost, yet still offer the safety and comfort of a twin engine plane.
Equipped as forward air control aircraft in Vietnam, Skymasters were used for reconnaissance, target identification, damage assessment and air to ground coordination.
The venerable Cessna L-19's were taking much damage from ground fire, and it became obvious that a faster twin-engine forward air control (FAC) air plane was needed.
