This beautifully restored Douglas A-1 Skyraider, coded "665/TC," still flies today at airshows and warbird gatherings, keeping alive the legacy of the rugged, propeller-driven attack aircraft that served Air Force pilots throughout the Vietnam War. Nicknamed the "Spad" for its anachronistic piston power in the jet age, the A-1 could carry a bomb load rivaling some four-engine bombers of World War II while loitering over a target far longer than contemporary jets — a capability that made it indispensable for close air support and rescue escort missions.
