This A-26 Invader has been on static display at the local VFW since 1957. Due to neglect and corrosion the scrap yard loomed ahead, but the aircraft was saved by two wonderful veterans who were willing to put 3000, labor of love, hours in to restoring her.
Before it became a museum piece, the A-26 Invader was used as a trainer to teach new squadrons back in the World War II era. It also flew in the Korean war for surveillance purposes.
It was my great pleasure to photograph the Invader from the blessed 172, new engined, aircraft. Click to enlarge.
And under the expanse their wings were stretched out straight, one toward another. And each creature had two wings covering its body. And when they went, I heard the sound of their wings like the sound of many waters, like the sound of the Almighty, a sound of tumult like the sound of an army. Ezekiel 1:23,24
