The Douglas A-4 Skyhawk is one of the most successful attack aircraft in military history, having faithfully served in numerous international conflicts in the colors of many nations. The aircraft first made its mark during the Vietnam War where it was a key asset of the United States Navy aircraft carrier arsenal. We are proud to join Lt. Col. David Dollarhide (US Navy retired) during his final flights at the controls of one of the most impressive A-4 Skyhawks in the skies today! Dave’s detailed commentary includes the aircraft’s history, carrier operations, flight characteristics and an in-depth review of the cockpit instruments and systems. Dave’s experiences from serving in combat in the Vietnam War to present day in his final flight in the A-4 is a story not to be missed!
