A-1 SKYRAIDER IN VIETNAM: THE SPAD'S LAST WAR

Through its remarkable service in South-east Asia, the Skyraider became legendary. It served with distinction in the hands of US Navy, US Air Force and South Vietnamese Air Force pilots, who often flew at low altitude and in the face of devastating anti-aircraft fire. This book takes not only a look at an old airline, but at the warriors who flew and maintained the machine they called the "Spad". The text, which is rich with the narratives of Spad pilots and ground crew, is complemented by over three hundred original photographs, seventy emblems, and detailed listings of every Skyraider that flew in the war, and the colourful units to which they were assigned.
