What are PlaneTags?
PlaneTags are small pieces of authentic aircraft skin, which have been removed from a decommissioned plane then cut into an oval shape. Each one is laser engraved with a drawing of the plane it comes from, the name of the plane, its registration or tail number, and its number in the series. Each PlaneTag is attached to a display card which tells more about the plane and its history. They can be customized on the back to make it a truly personal and touching gift.
And why do PlaneTags make the best gift for an aviation enthusiast?
PlaneTags can be:
- Collected individually

Grumman OV-1D Mohawk: The U.S. Army's Battlefield Eye in the Sky
The Grumman OV-1 Mohawk was one of the most capable and technologically advanced reconnaissance aircraft operated by the U.S. Army during the Cold War. Designed to gather intelligence close to the front lines, the Mohawk combined short takeoff and landing performance with sophisticated sensor systems that allowed it to detect and monitor activity on the ground in nearly any weather conditions.
At a time when battlefield commanders increasingly relied on timely intelligence, the Mohawk provided information that could not always be obtained through traditional observation methods. Equipped with infrared sensors, cameras, and side-looking airborne radar systems, it helped military planners track troop movements, monitor supply routes, and identify potential threats day or night.
Over a service life that spanned more than three decades, the Mohawk flew missions in Vietnam, served with Army intelligence units in Europe during the height of the Cold War, and helped pioneer many of the airborne surveillance techniques that later became standard throughout the military.
Today, PlaneTags made from OV-1D Mohawk serial number 62-5902 preserve the legacy of an aircraft that played a critical role in military reconnaissance during a period of rapid technological change.
