Built for the US Navy in 1954 as Bu 138122. One of a few Trojans transferred in the late '60s to the US Army as a flight test chase plane, but retained its Navy serial. Allotted to the National Museum of Naval Aviation in 1984 but sold to the civil market and registered N28RF on 6 November 1985. Shipped to Australia in March 2008 and registered VH-FNO(4) on 13 August that year. Assembled at Toowoomba and currently resident in NSW, it's seen here at the Wings Over the Illawarra 2016 airshow.

Brought on RAAF charge 18 August 1943. Struck off as converted to components May 1946 and stored at RAAF Oakey 45/48. Trucked to a local farm, from where recovered in 1972. Rebuilt by Matt Denning 1975-2001 to this pristine example of Australia's rare indigenous fighter. Seen here at WOI 16.

After military service, this Albatros initially went to South Africa where it was registered in the experimental block as ZU-BZA in October 1999. In 2002 it came to Australia, initially being based in Perth, and was re-registered VH-LQT on 2 August that year. Early the following year, on 2 January 2003, it was re-registered VH-HOT. This lasted until 12 June 2007 when it was re-registered again as VH-IOT(3). Seen here at Wings Over the Illawarra 2016.

German CL class aircraft were light two-seaters used as escort fighters and ground attack aircraft. Developed from the Halberstadt CL.II, the nimble CL.IV was manoeuvrable and easy to fly. It saw action in the final battles of WWI in 1918.

The Boeing 15 fighter served with the US Army as the PW-9 and with the Navy as the FB. The FB-5 model was the USN's first true carrier fighter. I understand it used 'grapple hooks' on an axle between the main wheels that this survivor doesn't have. The tail skid looks intriguing. Also the navigation light on the wing tip seems enormous, but this is mostly a wide angle effect.

SPAD was better known for its single-seat fighters, and the two-seat S.XI/S.XVI served without distinction as a reconnaissance aircraft. Six S.XVIs were supplied to the Americans, and this particular one was flown by Lt Col Billy Mitchell during the Battle of Château-Thierry in July 1918.
