Highlights of the 2006 Yankee Air Museum 'Thunder Over Michigan' Airshow

This very nice naval formation flight with the Corsair and the Skyhawk is an appropriate matchup, since both aircraft operated in the ground attack role and both fought in Indochina, the Corsair with the French and the Skyhawk with the US navy and marines. American senator John McCain is perhaps the most famous Skyhawk pilot, but he was shot down while flying one over Hanoi and spent several years as a guest in the "Hanoi Hilton" prison.
