Veteran Seated in A-1 Skyraider Cockpit, Reunion Event, May 2019

A veteran examines the cockpit of a preserved A-1 Skyraider during a May 2019 reunion event. The fuel-grade stencil '115/145' visible on the fuselage refers to the high-octane aviation gasoline used by the Skyraider's radial engine. Reunions like this allow former Air Commandos and their families to reconnect with the aircraft that carried them through the Vietnam War. Project: 219251
