Sorry I'm late with a reply to this. My bad as this turned out beautiful!
I can't help thinking what it would have looked like if one of the Skyraiders had been an A-1E model with the multiseat cockpit.

That looks like an actual real world airplane both the idea and the model.  :-*

They should have made that thing IRL  ;)
