Cockpit Instrument Panel of a Preserved Vietnam-Era Attack Aircraft

The instrument panel of a preserved Vietnam-era attack aircraft, likely an A-1 Skyraider, reflects decades of hard use in its worn dials and hand-lettered checklist cards. Cockpits like this one remain flying reminders of the aircraft that supported American and allied ground forces throughout the war in Southeast Asia. Project: 219527
