Douglas Skyraider

One of my favorite airplanes during my plastic model kit days. Instead of building one version of a plane and having bombs, rockets or fuel tanks left over, this plane let you hang every bit of ordinance on the sprues. Also a single-engine plane so big it made that Duplex Cyclone look disproportionately small. Never seen one in real life until we visited the French Air and Space Museum at Le Bourget airport.
