It is shown that if a plane of PG(3, q), q even, meets an ovoid in a conic, then the ovoid must be an elliptic quadric. This is proved by using the generalized quadrangles T-2(l) (l a conic), W(q) and the isomorphism between them to show that every secant plane section of the ovoid must be a conic. The result then follows from a well-known theorem of Barlotti.
