Visitors Pose Before Radial-Engine Warbird Nose, TN Air Museum, June 2014

Museum visitors gather beneath the nose of a natural-metal Douglas Skyraider-type attack aircraft during a June 2014 open house. The Skyraider's rugged radial engine and heavy payload capacity made it a mainstay of U.S. Navy and Air Force close air support operations from Korea through Vietnam. Project: 219310
