Proudly marked 'AMERICA' beneath a painted flag on its cowling, this restored A-1 Skyraider represents the rugged single-seat attack aircraft flown by U.S. Air Force Air Commando squadrons in Vietnam. Capable of carrying more ordnance than a WWII B-17 bomber, the Skyraider was prized for its ability to loiter over the battlefield and absorb punishing ground fire while supporting troops below.
