The DH-89 at the National Museum of the United States Air Force was built in 1944 and carried RAF serial NR695. It was sold to the government of India in 1945, then sold again to a private concern in 1946. Eventually, it came to the United States where it was modified to the civilian Dragon Rapide passenger configuration. The classic aircraft was obtained by the museum and flown here in November 1989. It is painted to represent one of the six Dominies flown by the USAAF during World War II.

In 1943 a Romanian AF pilot defected to Cyprus with this a/c. It was subsequently flown to the U.S. for flight testing at Wright Field in Ohio. It was then put into storage and delivered to the USAF Museum in January 1960. The markings in the slide were the first ones applied by the museum. The a/c is currently on display in the World War 2 Gallery in Romanian AF markings. This slide was taken in the outdoor aircraft display area at the original museum on Patterson AFB.

Donated to the USAF Museum by Spain in 1966. After acquiring an actual Bf 109 the museum deaccessioned this a/c. In 2003 it was registered with the FAA as N109FF. It has since been restored to flying condition as a Bf 109G-2 and is at the Military Aviation Museum in Virginia Beach, VA. This slide was taken at the outdoor aircraft display area at the original USAF Museum site on Patterson AFB.

This is XF-91 46-680 marked as XF-91 46-681. It is unknown why the USAF Museum had the wrong serial number on the a/c. 46-680 was delivered to the museum in 1955. When displayed later at the new museum it had the correct s/n on the vertical fin. This slide was taken at the outdoor aircraft display area at the old museum on Patterson AFB. It is still part of the museum collection but as of 2022 it is in storage according to the museum website.

This was the second of three F-107 a/c built. It was the only one fitted with the four 20mm M39 cannon armament, and was used for weapons testing.

The a/c is still at the current museum but as of May 2022 is in storage and not on display.
