This extraordinary flying boat is apparently one of six built, no doubt inspired by the Japanese Shin Meiwa designs with a bit of Beriev thrown in too. First flew 1976 and entered service with the People's Liberation Army North Sea Fleet at Qingdao ten years later. Orbis DC-8 N220RB behind

Chinese production of the Antonov An-2, begun in 1957 as the Y-5, was transferred from Nanching to Shijiazhuang Aircraft in 1970 after 728 examples had been produced. This rare but derelict Y-5C floatplane variant was one of six built for the Navy from 1964. Before fading, the serial on the other side read as '21397', but it is believed that a rudder swap (from 21353?) has caused confusion

Where else could you find not one but two Tu-124s on show? Looking fine after recent repainting alongside sister-ship 50257, this rare machine was originally displayed back in the 1990s in a strange pink colour scheme

The real serial of this Pakistan Air Force Mirage is 108 and previously it was Libyan Air Force 108. Another gift from Pakistan, an F-86 Sabre, is displayed nearby. Very little light in there and difficult to photograph a camouflaged aircraft successfully

China obtained a small number of Alouette III utility helicopters from France in the early 1970s. Licensed co-production or reverse engineering was considered but later abandoned

Atmospheric scene in a storage area that looks more like an abandoned battlefield. Over 6,000 of this development of the Il-2 were built, with China importing 254 between 1950 and 1952 and used by assault aviation divisions of PLAAF, including combat during conflict with Taiwan over border islands in January 1955. The last Il-10s were not retired until 1972. Behind is a Nanchang CJ-5 (Yak-18) and three Y-5s (An-2)

An extraordinary machine by any standard. In 1967, China attempted to develop its first AEW platform based on the Tu-4 airframe with AI-20 turboprop engines. The project was named KJ-1, with a Type 843 rotor-dome on top. However, the equipment was too heavy and failed to meet PLAAF requirements so the project was cancelled in 1971
