Funny, Luthier... I'd always heard that that was a kitchen sink (but that doesn't quite look like a sink).

Interesting thing about the Skyraider is that when it was retired from service during the Viet Nam war, there was no single aircraft in the Navy inventory that could do all the things a "SPAD" could.

It was a decision based more on logistical concerns that any lack of performance in the combat arena.

Actually a Skyraider scored a kill against a Mig 17 in Viet Nam, if I recall correctly.

Praying here for a flyable A-26. That would be a dream come true!
