C-57s were twenty L-18-10 Lodestars impressed by the US Army Air Force on the production line. It looks like 41-23164 was photographed in the Pacific theatre. 'Condemned overseas, May 7, 1945.'

In the US Navy's designation system, the J was for utility aircraft and the O for Lockheed until 1951, with the V being for Vega. The single JO-1 was an L-12A for the US naval attache in Rio de Janeiro. The first of five JO-2s staff transports was delivered in September 1937, and three went to the Marine Corps. BuNo 1049 served with VMJ-1 at Quantico for use by Headquarters, USMC. It was struck off charge in November 1943. 1050 was also with VMJ-1, but crashed in September 1938. 1051 served at MCAS Ewa near Pearl Harbor in December 1941 and was destroyed in the Japanese attacks.

'Landing at Burbank after a test flight.' Photo is stamped 19 March 1940 but was probably taken earlier. On 15 May 1940, this aircraft had a mishap at Leuchars, serving with No 233 Sqn. Note that N7269 is an RAF serial, not a US civil registration.

Built in 1953 by Canadair for the RAF at American expense, but initially loaned to RCAF, wearing both Canadian serial 19627 and XB753. To RAF in 1954. Given back to the United States in September 1956. Serial 53-19627 was assigned by the USAF to match the Canadian serial. Delivered to Italy as 19627 (and not MM19627) on an unknown date, assumed to be in 1957 at the latest. Collided with 19630 on 24 March 1960.

The Hawker Hotspur was a two-seat fighter derived from the Henley light bomber. Judged to be equal to the rival Boulton Paul Defiant, but Hawker themselves were unenthusiastic. This sole prototype, with dummy turret, not flown until June 1938, when production had already been cancelled. Photo taken at Brooklands or Martlesham Heath. K8309 to RAE Farnborough in 1939 for testing flaps and dive brakes. Scrapped after a belly landing in 1942. Image scanned from a postcard.

An interesting, sharp photo of an early Huey, assigned to the US Army Aviation Board, a test unit, at the 1959 Paris Airshow. It wears the Army designation HU-1, without the A suffix sometimes claimed for its batch. HU-1, which gave rise to the Huey nickname, was changed to UH-1 in 1962.

The Fouga Magister was a sales success. Seen on the left are No 236 of the French air force, retained by the manufacturer for some time, and FM-16 for Finland. On the right, MT14 for Belgium and an aircraft coded AA-171 for the West German Luftwaffe, probably c/n 74/D9. The photo must have been taken early in 1960. The location is assumed to be Blagnac, where final assembly took place. Photo by: J Havard

Pictured at Glendale with its Air Associates and 'Visiting Ships' hangars before shipment from New York to Le Havre. Registered to the French state to be operated by Régie Air Afrique, a state company which I believe was created because Air France was not keen to start services to sub-Saharan Africa.

Four brothers named Moss built the attractive MA.1 two-seater in Chorley, Lancashire in 1937, intending commercial production. In 1938, G-AEST reappeared as a sports model with open cockpits and writer Ben Dunnell thinks this may have been a new airframe; see Alan Scholefield's photos from 1950 when it was a racer with the rear cockpit covered.

The Overstrand was a warmed-up Sidestrand bomber. The powered nose turret was something of a novelty. Bristol Pegasus II engines in curious nine-sided cowlings. This was the first prototype, converted from a Sidestrand. New Type number 13 at the 1934 Hendon pageant.
