Maintenance views from the John Kiland collection: a military aircraft's forward equipment bay opened to reveal its wiring, hydraulic lines, and gauges, and a radial engine stripped of its cowling in a hangar. Together they show the mechanical complexity behind keeping Vietnam-era combat aircraft such as the A-1 Skyraider mission-ready.
