The Douglas A-1 Skyraider (formerly AD)
was an American single-seat attack aircraft that saw service between the late 1940s and early
1980s. It became a piston-powered, propeller-driven anachronism in the jet age, and was nicknamed "Spad", after a French World War I
fighter. The Skyraider had a remarkably long and successful career, even inspiring its straight-winged, slow-flying, jet-powered
successor, the A-10 Thunderbolt II.
Below is a partial list of airframes that survived military service.
