At two long OAS sessions Costa Rica sought military help under regional treaties while the council approved the sale of four US F51D planes to Costa Rica for one dollar each. The planes were sent from Texas to San Jose and Costa Rican pilots were to receive them that night. Nicaragua protested and warned it would seek a reciprocal shipment to its border, as an OAS commission found rebel air power dominating the Costa Rican theater.
