A close-up study of the Douglas A-1 Skyraider "AMERICA" on museum display, framing its four-bladed propeller, massive radial engine, and underwing stores. The detail view shows exactly what made the Skyraider formidable: pylons built to carry heavy bomb and rocket loads for close air support and rescue escort over Vietnam.
