A-1 Skyraider "Wiley Coyote" Taxiing at Airshow, Tennessee
A restored Douglas A-1 Skyraider, nicknamed "Wiley Coyote," taxis at a Tennessee airshow. The rugged, propeller-driven Skyraider served as the backbone of Vietnam-era close air support and combat search-and-rescue operations, flown by Air Commando "Sandy" pilots to protect downed aircrew under intense enemy fire. Surviving examples like this one keep the aircraft's legacy flying for new generations. Project: 219252
