Restored Douglas A-1 Skyraider Taxiing at Air Show, Smoky Mountains Background
A beautifully restored Douglas A-1 Skyraider taxis at an air show, still wearing the Southeast Asia camouflage scheme it would have carried during Vietnam War combat operations. The Skyraider's rugged airframe and heavy ordnance capacity made it a legendary close air support and 'Sandy' rescue-escort aircraft throughout the conflict. Project: 219309
