A-1 Skyraider 'TC 258' in Flight with Full Ordnance Load, Vietnam War Era
An A-1 Skyraider, tail code 'TC 258,' banks in flight with a heavy load of bombs and rockets beneath its wings. Renowned for its ability to carry a greater ordnance load than many jets of its era while loitering for extended periods over the battlefield, the Skyraider became a mainstay of close air support and rescue escort missions during the Vietnam War.
