This An-12 was used for high altitude flights observing the total solar eclipse as long ago as 1968. One of the many superb transport aircraft exhibits, which by the general standards of aviation museums are well positioned for photography

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)

This former Alia Royal Jordanian Airlines and BCAL/British Airways 747 was added to ANA's fleet in November 1990 and was their final 747-200. Transferred to Nippon Cargo in August 1997 and getting a cargo door, it left Japan in March 2007. The big freighter then went to Jet8 Airlines Cargo who seems to have withdrawn it sometime in 2011.
