About this product

Product Information

The Skyraider became legendary for its ability to soak up battle damage and still keep flying. It was eventually replaced in the US Navy by the swept-wing jet A-6 Intruder and A-7 Corsair. Radar-equipped Skyraiders were operated by the Royal Navy (1951-62) as airborne early warning aircraft, while the French Air Force bought ex-US Navy Skyraiders for use in the Algerian War in the 1960s, and in the 1970s during the civil war in Chad where they were flown by French mercenary pilots.

In depth review of the A1 Skyraider
This publication was written by a person who has worked on, serviced and rebuilt this aircraft and who knows it inside out. Written in an easy to read style with plenty of detail. Definately a worthwhile read for the vintage aircraft enthusiast.
