Fixed-Wing Aircraft Flying Low over Jungle Canopy

Fixed-Wing Aircraft Flying Low over Jungle Canopy

A propeller-driven strike aircraft, likely an A-1 Skyraider, banks low over the jungle canopy in support of ground operations. Aircraft like this provided close air support and escort for MACV-SOG reconnaissance teams operating along the Laos border during missions such as Operation Tailwind in 1970. Project: 219489
