Good to see a commercially active Beech 18 nowadays. This was one of a small number flown by C.M. Aero Services (also operators of DC-3 RP-C1353) typically carrying fish from the provinces. It is ex RP-C1358.

This Stearman is the oldest aircraft preserved in the Philippines by some margin. Before WWII, a number were used by the fledgling Army Air Corps to seek out bandit hideouts

Rare view of a failed Bangladeshi start-up. Two Let 410s were delivered in 2011 as far as Chittagong but did not meet standards for CAAB certification. An EASA directive required extra emergency exits and other modifications, so these two along with the other former SE Asian Airlines Let 410s were grounded at Clark Field. This one carries RP-C2928 on the other side, the other (tail just visible behind) is RP-C-2948 which was allocated S2-AEJ but not marked as such.

In late 1977, the Philippine government purchased 35 ex-US Navy F-8Hs, 10 of them for parts only. They were grounded in 1988 and finally withdrawn from service in 1991 after they were badly damaged by the Mount Pinatubo eruption, later being offered for sale as scrap

Had hoped to catch a short YS-11 ride during this trip but it didn't quite happen. Originally ANA's JA8735 from 5.69, to Asian Spirit by 9.03. Ran off runway on landing at Masbate 2.1.08 causing nosewheel collapse and bent props. Type wfu 8.08 and airline reformed as Zest, retaining only Dash 7s but adding MA-60s

The P-51 displayed for many years outside at the Philippine AF Museum with the name "Shark of Zambales" was incorrectly serialled '3733'; this is the same aircraft after restoration, and now falsely marked as '4823'. It was originally delivered to the USAAF as 44-74627, then transferred to the Philippine AF as 73373.

When I first saw this YS in 2006, it was immaculate, having just been painted in these colours. BIMP-EAGA stands for Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia and Philippines - East Asean Growth Area, and you can see the flags of those four nations on the tail. How it's deteriorated since!

First arriving in the Philippines in 2001, this ex-USAF C-7 operated for a time out of Clark with Jans Helicopter Services before storage at MNL. Said to have been acquired by an Australian company for operation in Djibouti, but looks unlikely to be going far in the near future. Originally 62-4160 and emerged from MASDC in 10.85 as N800NC

Taken from a taxiing Navion, this classic 737 is Seair's first large aircraft and was obtained in 8.01 and is ex JY-TWC, XA-ACP, N230GE, LV-WPA, N675MA and B-2504. Don't want to attempt pronouncing that airport name on the tower!

Mosphil Aero operated its first commercial flight from Zamboanga to Sandakan in 11.06 using this ex-Tyumen An-24 with a Russian crew. There were plans for Filipino crews to undergo training at Kiev, but the company suspended operations in 2.07 and the aircraft has been stored ever since

Manila was the last haven for many of the world's surviving YS-11s and it was great to catch this superbly painted and rarely seen example departing on a package flight. The aircraft has Korean Air Lines, Philippine Airlines, TOA Domestic, JAS, Air Aruba and Asian Spirit among its previous operators but unfortunately veered off the runway on landing at MNL on 16.11.06 and is no longer in service
