This aircraft was TOC by the FAA in 1952 and served until being placed in storage at Kemble during 1966. It has been part of the FAA Museum's collection since 1971 and has been stored as part of the Reserve Collection at Cobham Hall since 1999. It is presently undergoing restoration, hence the fuel tank on the floor and the gaping hole behind the cockpit.

First time for me to see an Albacore so this was probably the hightlight from my visit to the FAA Museum's Reserve Collection at Cobham Hall. This is the only surviving example but is actually a beautifully restored composite of two aircraft that were wrecked in 1941, N4172 & N4389. The former crashed in 1941 at A'Mhoine, Whiten Head, Sutherland and the latter was shot down near Reinøya whilst taking part in the raid on Kirkenes

First flown in January 1940, the Fulmar was a two-seat long-range shipboard fighter aircraft. Though often outperformed by enemey fighters, it did fairly well against Italian aircraft and its pilots were credited with 112 kills in all, making the Fulmar, surprisingly, the top-scoring Fleet Air Arm fighter of WWII.

Replacing the Fulmar as a two-seat naval fighter, the Firefly entered service in 1944. This aircraft wears the large US-style roundels adopted by the British Pacific Fleet, although in fact this one was used for spin trials at home.

Over 2500 Barracuda torpedo bombers were delivered to the Royal Navy in WW II making it the most numerous type they operated. However, not one was preserved and this ambitious project is to restore a composite aircraft for display in the FAA Museum. Parts from several crashed examples have been collected since the 1970s and restoration and re-assembly started in 2010. It is seen in Cobham Hall, the FAA Museum Reserve Collection

This Skua was shot down by a Heinkel He-111 in 1940 and crashed on frozen Breidalsvatnet Lake in Norway. The crew survived and set it alight causing it to sink through the ice. It was recovered in 1974 and is now displayed in the FAA Museum in this diorama representing its resting place and even with model divers to show the recovery
