Douglas A-1 Skyraider 'Lighthawk America' (Tail Code TC) Taxiing, Tennessee Airshow, June 2014
This restored A-1 Skyraider, marked 'Lighthawk America' and bearing the tail code 'TC,' taxis at a Tennessee airfield during a 2014 airshow. The Skyraider's rugged airframe and heavy ordnance capacity made it indispensable to close air support and rescue operations throughout the Vietnam War, and surviving examples like this one continue to honor that legacy at airshows across the country.
