Talking about Skyray brings to mind Dad telling of a time during his 1960s, 70s, USN career where on a live-fire landing exercise with the Marines one or more Skyrays came in low over the beach firing those 2-inch folding fin rockets from pods under the wings. He thought that was a pretty cool thing to experience from what felt like "stick your hand up and touch them" distance.
