Delivered to the US Navy in 1956 (bu 139665), this Skyraider was transferred to the South Vietnamese Air Force in 1967 keeping the serial number. When the government of South Vietnam collapsed in 1975, the aircraft was flown to Thailand by an escaping pilot. Shipped to the USA circa 1980 and stored by Yesterdays Air Force and later Military Aircraft Restoration in Chino, CA, it was sold to Great American Aircraft Maintenance in the late 90s and restored, registered N665TC. It's in the collection of the Tennessee Museum of Aviation at Gatlinburg - Pigeon Forge airport in Tennessee.
