The Humlan (Bumble Bee) is a single-seat autogyro, designed by Staffan Ekström and Helge Svensson. They had been testing various foreign autogyros for a long time and decided to manufacture their own. After extensive ground tests, the first test flight (SE-HXA?) took place at Barkarby in June 1973 with the type in production between I1973-1976. This example is now on display at Aeroseum.

After retirement, this Alouette was preserved at the Maritime Museum in downtown Gothenburg ND was moved to Aeroseum in 2005. It NOW forms an exciting exhibit for kiddies (of all ages) as they can sit in the cockpit as the rotor blades are whirring overhead and pretend to be flying across the tree-tops.

The BHT-1 Beauty was a one-off build in 1944 that had a self-regulating prop and retractable landing gear, which gave the aircraft good performance despite a weak engine. After a varied life suffering damage and restoration, the plane was donated to the Svensk Flyghistorisk Förening (Swedish Aviation Historical Society) (SFF) in 2011 and was placed on display in the SFF section of Aeroseum.

A-26C 44-35918 painted as B-26B 44-34287 Versatile Lady, a night intruder aircraft in the Korean War. At starboard is a huge squadron badge instead of the nose art, painted here in a General Audiences version. This airframe actually ended active USAF service in 1957, had several civil US, Costa Rican and Honduran registrations and was even with the Honduran air force. Arrived here as N2781G in jungle camo, later completely resprayed.

On display in at least the third version of its Air Education and Training Command livery here: initially partly bare metal with AETC shield on the tail, then resprayed grey with yellow tailband and the shield, and here with a grey tailband and the simplified emblem. The G designator in the type indicates this has been a ground instructional aircraft with the Air Force.

Probably given a USAAF livery because this is the USAF Airman Heritage Museum but unclear what the tail number stands for. True identity in small print under the horizontal stabiliser though: SNJ-4 51584. This US Navy trainer went civil in 1956 and crashed in November 1971 but could be saved well enough for display. On loan from the USAF Museum since 1993.

Probably given a USAAF livery because this is the USAF Airman Heritage Museum but unclear what the tail number stands for. True identity in small print under the horizontal stabiliser though: SNJ-4 51584. This US Navy trainer went civil in 1956 and crashed in November 1971 but could be saved well enough for display. On loan from the USAF Museum since 1993.

This A-7's first assignment was with the 23rd TFW at England AFB (LA), that had a successful Vietnam tour in 1973. It wears full markings, including the 76th TFS red tailband with white stars. Several years earlier here, it had toned-down markings and the tailband of the 75th TFS, same wing. Its operational time ended with the Colorado ANG in 1990 and it was preserved at Denver-Front Range airport (now Colorado Air and Space Port) intially, before being moved here at some point.

Former 23rd Tactical Air Support Squadron OA-10 Forward Air Control Warthog in its genuine Desert Storm markings. Tail code NF stands for 'Nail FAC' with callsign Nail originating from the Vietnam war. A toned-down squadron badge is above the wing root and the nose art says The Unknown Bomber and Desert Storm '91. It figures a sort of dachshund with antlers, about to shoot a bomb from a rubber catapult between its tail and antlers. Back in the US this A-10 later flew with another Davis Monthan squadron, the 354th FS.

Having been an Eagle Admirer since living within cycling distance of an active F-15 base as a teenager, I was pleased to finally see the very first one, and in its original F-15 Joint Test Force livery too. Also dubbed YF-15A, its test flying days ran from July 1972 to November 1975. It was later used as an exhibit by the Air Force Orientation Group and also on display here as the Desert Storm MiG killer 85-0114/EG, but rightfully restored.

A-26C 44-35918 painted as B-26B 44-34287 Versatile Lady, a night intruder aircraft in the Korean War. Nose art for the name on the other side, huge 13th Bombardment Squadron badge here. The Invader on display actually ended active USAF service in 1957, had several civil US, Costa Rican and Honduran registrations and was even with the Honduran air force. Arrived here as N2781G in jungle camo, later completely resprayed.

Posing as 'Joltin Josie, The Pacific Pioneer' of the 873rd Bomb Sqn, 498th Bomb Group (T) with accompanying port side nose art and mission marks - that I unfortunately do not have a decent photo of. Tragically, 42-24614 caught fire and crashed on take-off in the Northern Marianas on 1 April 1945, killing everyone on board. This airframe's true ID is in tiny print under the stabilo: RB/WB-29A 44-62220. Delivered to the USAAF in September 1945 and after active weather recce duty to the US Army as a static training target, 1960-1985, then to the USAF Museum in 1998.

Representing a B-17 that saw intensive action in the last years of WW2, both in bombing and later POW liberation missions. It operated with the 561st Bomb Squadron (T), 388th Bomb Group (H) from RAF Knettishall in England. The actual aircraft here, B-17G 44-83512, was always based in North America, in the US and Newfoundland, and ended up as a ground instructional airframe at Lackland AFB. True identity in small print on the bottom of the tail, as is often the case with historic displays.

This is really the former 44-29835, built as a B-25J and later converted into a TB-25N. Finished its flying career as N3676G and was eventually sprayed here as a B-25H of the 490th Bomb Squadron 'Burma Bridge Busters' operating from India, of which the (unofficial but consistently used) WW2 badge is on the nose.
