Douglas A-1 Skyraider Cockpit and Forward Fuselage, Tennessee Air Museum

Douglas A-1 Skyraider. A workhorse of the Vietnam War, the A-1 Skyraider provided close air support and rescue escort for downed airmen thanks to its heavy weapons load, rugged construction, and long time on station. This example is preserved in its Vietnam-era camouflage scheme with cockpit open for visitors to view. Project: 219533
