First flown on the last day of 1933, the radical I-16 was arguably the world's most advanced fighter of its day, but also seriously tricky to fly.

This new-build Yak 3U was constructed in Romania by Avioane Craiova in 2005. Powered by a Pratt & Whitney R-2000 Twin Wasp, it was initially registered N46463. It's as fast as blazes and in 2011 set a Class world speed record of 416 mph. Exported to Australia, it was registered VH-YOV on 24 December 2013. Seen here after a display at the Wings Over the Illawarra 2016 airshow.

It's funny what you find just sitting around at country aerodromes! This former Polish Air Force aircraft arrived in Australia and was stored, disassembled, at Bankstown in 1994-5. It was registered VH-REH(6) on 4 April 1995. I've never seen it before and by the look of it, it doesn't fly very often.

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. Seen here at the Antique Aeroplane Association of Australia's National Fly-in.

Charlie Camilleri's Albatros made its first post-restoration public appearance at the Narromine Airshow. Unfortunately it went u/s after refuelling in Dubbo on the morning of the air display and thus didn't get to be seen by most visitors to the show. First registered on 30 March 2007.
