This Bird Dog was built in 1952 to a 1951 USAF order and allocated the serial 51-12134. This was later represented as 0-12134 when the aircraft became more than 10 years old. This aircraft is thought to have gone to the Royal Thai Air Force, and from there to Australia. It was registered in Australia on 15 January 1997 and is currently, appropriately, VH-FAC(5).

Delivered to the USAF as 51-8566. To the Royal Danish Air Force as DT-566 in 1961. Registered as G-TJET in 1982 then G-NASA in 1991. Shipped to the USA in 1996 and not reported again.

The Experimental Aircraft Association acquired this rare North American P-64 in 1964. Flown for years by EAA President Paul Poberezny at EAA events, the aircraft was retired to the EAA Museum in 1988. The engine was run again in 2013 and it returned to flying in 2016 after further refurbishment.

This CA-18 was built by the Commonwealth Aircraft Corporation and TOC by the RAAF as A68-100 in November 1947. After its military service it was used by Fawcett Aviation, allocated VH-BOW, for test flights 1961-1962 to evaluate its use for high-altitude photographic survey. After these trials it was retired and the registration was ntu, after which it was shipped to USA in 1968 to be restored for use as a warbird and for racing eventually becoming N51AB in July 1971. The plane was exported to Germany in January 2015 and is pictured taxiing in to take part in this very interesting show.
