Douglas A-1 Skyraider 'TC 665' (Lieutenant America) on Ramp, Airshow
Douglas A-1 Skyraider, tail-coded 'TC 665' and named 'Lieutenant America.' The Skyraider was a rugged, propeller-driven attack aircraft that served the U.S. Navy and Air Force from the late 1940s through the Vietnam War, prized for its heavy ordnance capacity and long loiter time in close air support and rescue escort roles. This example is preserved in flying condition and displayed here in period-correct camouflage at a warbird air show. Project: 219310
