Two Restored A-1 Skyraiders with Folded Wings on Airport Ramp — Reunion Event

Two lovingly restored Douglas A-1 Skyraiders rest wingtip-to-wingtip, their wings folded in classic carrier-deck fashion. These rugged, propeller-driven attack aircraft flew countless close air support and rescue escort missions during the Vietnam War, and survivors like these continue to honor that legacy at veteran reunion and airshow events today.
