OB1

OB1 was the callsign of a medium-sized two engine cargo plane flown by Jock Lindsey.

In the summer of 1936, it was piloted by Lindsey to take Indiana Jones and Marcus Brody to Tibet while they looked for Francis Beresford-Hope. Lindsey relaxed in the plane while Jones and Brody found Beresford-Hope's Cave, and met with Alex Beresford-Hope. As the three escaped from some bandits, Lindsey heard Jones yelling, and started the plane. As the plane circled along the valley floor, it bumped over a rough rock, which caused gave a jolt to Brody, Jones, Beresford-Hope and a Tibetan Bandit who had just gotten aboard. The engines died abruptly, and the plane fell off of a cliff. Lindsey was able to restart the engines, and pulled the plane out of a dive and to safety. Flying off, the bandit was forced out with a parachute, and the plane flew to Shanghai, where Jones, Brody and Beresford-Hope left.

Behind the scenes
The plane's callsign OB1 is a reference to Lindsey's other plane, OB-CPO, and a reference to the Star Wars character, Obi-Wan Kenobi.
