Always an impressive type to see, the A-3 was never common in the UK but this one took a break from its ELINT duties to fly up from VQ-2 at Rota in Spain for the 77 Air Tattoo. Damaged during a carrier launch in 9.87 and retired to AMARC in 11.90. Rear fuselage apparently used to repair another damaged aircraft, 144856

WK128 was allocated to the Royal Radar Establishment and flew from 1958, initially as a jamming aircraft for "window" launching tests, then guided weapons fusing and laser designation research. Modified by Flight Refuelling at Tarrant Rushton in 1977 for Beech AQM-37A "Stilletto" trails. To RAE/DRA at Llanbedr in 1978; scrapped 11.04, nose to the RRE's home at Pershore

Began her career in 9.43 with the RCAF and put into service by the RAE at West Freugh in May 1969 as 'KG661'; in 1979 it was realised that this identity actually belonged to c/n 13478 so current serial ZA947 was allocated instead! On the strength of the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight since Sep 1993 and used for multi-engine training.

It was good to see this Antonov in the UK (support for the Biało-Czerwone Iskry aerobatic team), bringing back memories of a noisy flight in her from KRK to PRG and return in 1991. One of three which were operated by the military in LOT colours for ten years from Mar 1986, this one was otherwise known as 1604 and was delivered to the Polish AF as such in Mar 1973 and reverted to those marks in Feb 1996. Reported wfu 2005 but seen parked at KRK 2008 in the two-tone green and grey camo; registered SP-EKF and noted at KTW 2010, still there 2017 as '1604'

The 19 mark B(I)6 Canberras were built in 1955 as an interim measure pending the B(I)8, for ground-attack, interdictor and bomber roles. They served only 213 Sqn in RAFG, but this one (and WT308) went to the RAE instead. Used for weapons trials, the later 'Raspberry Ripple' scheme was modified with white undersides to improve performance of the wingtip mounted cameras. After a period as a ground apprentice trainer, she was scrapped in Jan 1998 but the nose section was saved for the FAST museum at Farnborough.

This 1942 C-47 was in Italy with the USAAF during the last part of WWII and remained there afterwards with Linee Airee Italiane as I-LINA. After the merger with Alitalia in 1957, went to the Air Force in 1960 and flew electronic missions with 14° Stormo Radiomisure. Dumped at Practica di Mare in 1998 and still derelict there. Sad for what was arguably the star of that Fairford show, but at least there is a similar example beautifully preserved in the IAF museum at Vigna di Valle

A very classy tribute on the tailfins of this MiG to WWII ace Mirosław Ferić. Like many Polish pilots, he reached Britain via Romania and France after the defeat of Poland, and fought in the Battle of Britain. He was killed as his Spitfire broke up in the air in 1942.
