Photo Comment

This airworthy A-37, military serial 69-6439, saw operational service with the USAF in Vietnam, and then with the South Vietnamese air force. Captured at Bien Hoa in 1975 it was impressed in the Vietnamese People's s Air Force. One of serveral A-37s purchased by Colin Pay in 1989, it was restored as VH-IVI and sold to John Smith who now displays it in his private museum. A spare J85 engine is in the foreground.
