Thanks for the YouTube link. It’s my bedtime, so I’ll check this out tomorrow after church while I’m starting my next build. Here’s what it’s going to look like.

My uncle was on the Coral Sea during the 60s and they had some A-1s aboard.

I’ll be building the Navy version of the Skyraider in the not too distant future, hopefully sometime this year.

Yeah. Someone pointed that out yesterday. They posted a YouTube video you should check out. It’s on the page before this. I’d never heard about that.

You know Darth, we could used a few squadrons of those right now over in the Middle East!
Just swoop in behind those Iranian drones and pick them off with machine guns.
Bullets are cheap!

Absolutely! Its ability to loiter fully laden for hours, then unleash absolute hell when needed was unmatched by any aircraft, until the A-10 Warthog

That would be like building a sandcastle with an excavator.
