I've noticed there's a door on the side of the skyraider....any info on this?
Nice shots Mic. Some versions of the Skyraider could carry up to 12 passengers.

Indeed. G-RADR is an AD-4NA (aka A-1D). According to this it normally carried a crew of 3.

Have a look at the AD-5, a warbird to carry all the family!

Beautiful shots Mic, Thanks for posting them. I don't know if anyone is interested, but I read a book about how the A-1 Skyraider was used in Vietnam, it is called Cheating Death, By George Marrett. Very interesting storys about some crazy pilots. I've been a A-1 fan ever since. Mark

#3 is a beauty Mic, well done
Thanks for the info about the Skyraider Doug, I never knew that. I wonder what the other guys did other than put their hands over their ears and close their eyes ;D
