Here's a new twist: I was paging through some of the photos in Col. Leich's albums and saw a picture of what I would ID as an O-59, but it was captioned:

"O-59, then L-59, then L-4- but it's still a J-3 Piper Cub"

Has anyone ever seen one called an L-59? Seems like a logical progression if they changed the O to L before they changed the numerical designation.
