Four "Emily" flying-boats of the 167 built for the Imperial Japanese Navy for maritime patrol, reconnaissance, bombing, and transport duities survived until the end of WWII. This one was captured by US forces in 1945 and was evaluated at the Naval Air Test Center, Patuxent River, MD in 1946/47, eventually being returned to Japan in 1979. It was on display at Tokyo's Museum of Maritime Science until 2004, when it was moved to Kanoya. A very special exhibit indeed!

A pleasing view of three of Japan's unique airlifters, now into their fifth decade, on the Iruma flightline. When the C-1 was designed, restrictions dictated that it could have enough range only to fly within Japanese airspace, but when Okinawa was returned by the US, they had difficulty in reaching that far. Extra tankage was fitted to the last five, but the number built was limited to 31 with the C-130 being procured instead. Eventually the Kawasaki C-2 is due as a replacement
