Restored A-1 Skyraider "Lieutenant America" with Visitor on Wing, TN Air Museum Air Show, June 7, 2014
A restored Douglas A-1 Skyraider, named "Lieutenant America" and adorned with patriotic nose art, sits on display at a Tennessee air museum fly-in on June 7, 2014. A visitor inspects the aircraft's massive radial engine cowling and propeller assembly. The Skyraider, a rugged single-engine attack aircraft, served with distinction during the Korean and Vietnam Wars, prized for its heavy ordnance capacity and long loiter time in close air support and combat search-and-rescue escort roles.
