Single-Engine Attack Warbird (A-1 Skyraider-type) in Banking Turn, Air Show, June 2014

A single-seat, radial-engine attack warbird - likely of the A-1 Skyraider type - banks sharply overhead, its underwing stores visible in silhouette. Aircraft like this served U.S. Navy and Air Force units from the Korean War through Vietnam, delivering ordnance in close air support missions before becoming prized air show performers.
