          Designed
            by Stinson and produced by Convair, the US military took delivery of
            300 L-13s between 1946 and 1947.  Issues with the Franklin
            powerplant led to its quick demise.
             The L-13 was used in the liaison, observation and
            air-ambulance roles.  |
