USAF A-1 Skyraider "Magnet Ass" (Fuselage 618), Engine Start, Vietnam War Era
Engine turning and streamers still attached, this A-1 Skyraider "Magnet Ass" undergoes final ground checks before launch. Ground crews raced against the clock to arm, fuel, and start these aircraft, often working just feet from a spinning propeller. Project: 218823
