I was looking on the net at 2005 Vectra, the listing said it had a Sky Deck for observation? I'm assuming it is on the roof? I looked at the floor plan and it didn't show a Sky Deck! I've been RVing since 1976 and never heard of this term before on any RV! Thank You, for educated me! I'm going to learn something new!

Both Winnebago and Airstream made models referred to as sky decks. The Winnebago observation deck, on the roof, was accessed by an exterior ladder, and on the Airstream it was an interior staircase.I believe the last year of production for both was around 2005.

I remember seeing them but way longer ago than 2005. the one I remember most vividly had no dining table cause the stairs up took up a lot of floor space. of course some NASCAR fans make sky decks by just setting chairs on the roof of rented RVs. :sbumpy

I guess if you are a race fan or want to look down on your neighbors a skydeck would be OK. Even though the Airstream has stairs inside you do gain a lot of space upstairs.Obviously not a big seller as I do not know of any newer units with this feature.

Airstream introduced the Sky Deck in 2002 and the last production was 2005.
