This F-5F has FMS serial 78-0783 and is seen here on one of its last flights before being withdrawn from use. It will now probably share the fate of its predecessors that it is passing here when taxiing back after landing.

This former USMC Corsair first went to the US civil registry as N5219V in 1959. It was intended for the Honduras AF but was never delivered. After a period of storage in Blythe, CA, the aircraft was transferred to Tucson, AZ, where it was dismantled in 1973 and prepared for shipment to the Korean Aviation/War Museum in Seoul in 1974. Later, it was moved to its current location at Sacheon.

Former US Army helicopter that had been transferred to South Korea by 1977 as there is a fantastic picture of this helicopter from that year on Air History. At least since 2002 it has been preserved at the KAI museum, in exact the same colours it had in 1977.

This former USAF Provider had originally been built as a C-123B but was later converted to C-123J. It was placed in storage at MASDC in 1976 and delivered to the RoKAF the following year. Since 1995 it is on display in the Seoul war museum. Seen here after sunset and after a fresh paint job.

Beaver 58600 is a mystery. Given how South Korea's Beavers were serialled one would think this is 55-8600, but that serial does not exist, nor is there any option in the fy58 range. One report suggests this is in fact 82073 (58-2073, c/n 1406/1954), which was noted in 2011 at the Daejeon army camp. Perhaps it was moved to the cemetary and repainted with a fake serial?

The identity of this F-86F is unclear. Given its current serial, the obvious candidate is 55-3833 (c/n 227-18). This F-86F was delivered to Japan as JASDF 62-7439. Many former JASDF aircraft went to South Korea. However, according to Joe Baugher's website this aircraft went to Tunisia under MAP in 1969. The Scramble database mentions this aircraft under Tunisia with only the 1969 delivery date as the first and last noted date but lists its JASDF serial as FMS serial. I suspect that there is a real chance that 55-3833 in fact went to RoKAF and is on display now in the Grand Park.

This O-1C has BuNo 151776 and was delivered to the USN on 31 October 1963. The USN, however, never used this Bird Dog as it was immediately struck of charge the next day to be handed over to South Korea. This took place later in November 1963. For that reason it also received a USAF serial (63-12741), which was never carried on the aircraft. The South Korean Navy operated the aircraft under serial 51776. Since 2015, it is preserved at the gate of Pohang NAS as part of the 6th Air Wing collection.

This is former USAF Trojan 51-7858 that was based in Japan, at Kisarazu AB in the early 1960. It was wfu on 31 January 1961 and a little later sent to South Korea to be taken up in the RoKAF as 17858. It has been preserved here since 1998 but was recently resprayed in a light blue colourscheme with a somewhat unusual serial representation.

The history of this Tracker remains a mystery. It is supposed to be former USN 136595 which was delivered to the JMSDF as 4108 in 1957 and was last noted there in 1976. In 1978, it appeared in the US civil register as N207AK (to be used as fire bomber by the State of Alaska), but apparently it was never taken up as such. In 1995, it emerged in the Seoul war memorial, initially with serial 6707, which is former USN Tracker 136707 (c/n 616). Some reports indicate that the latter aircraft indeed was delivered to the RoKAF in 1972 and later went to the navy. So 6595 might be fake.

This aircraft was developed in 1953, right after the Korean war by the RoKAF Technical School and is generally seen as the start of South Korea's domestic aerospace industry. In 1960, it was transferred to a civil flight school in Daegu. In 2004, the fuselage of the aircraft was salvaged from the Kyeongsang Technical High School in Daegu and a restoration project started. Two new aircraft were built in 2011, both of which are now preserved as well. It is thought that this aircraft at the KAI museum is the restored aircraft with the original fuselage.
