Nicknamed 'Magnet Ass' by its crew, this A-1 Skyraider sits fully armed in a protective revetment, its rocket pods and bombs still fitted with safety streamers ahead of a mission. Personal nose art like this was common on Skyraiders flown by Air Commando and Sandy rescue-escort squadrons, reflecting the close bond between pilots and their rugged, single-engine attack aircraft during the Vietnam War.
