This Privateer is a composite of several sections from different aircraft put together by Hawkins & Powers at their Greybull, WY base before ferrying to Pensacola in 1983, adopting the identity of 66304/N2870G. However several authoritative sources point to the majority coming from 33261/N7682C, incorporating major parts from 66304, 59882 and 66313. What is clear, however, is that it has suffered extensive hurricane damage

Taken on strength by the USMC in 1961 as an HUS-1 just before resignation as UH-34D next year and deployed aboard USS Guadalcanal in 1964 with HMM-261. Saw service in Vietnam in 1965/66 and entered the museum in 1973. In 1990 it was painted orange as HUS-1L BuNo 144657 'XO-657', one of four modified for operations by VX-6 in Antarctica and setting a record with a 450-mile flight in 1957. By 1998 repainted in standard USMC colours to represent the Ugly Angels of HMM-362, which in 1962 was the first Marine helicopter squadron to deploy to Vietnam

Constructed as a B.18S, this aircraft was the last civil delivery of a Beech 18 before production was switched to military orders for the duration of WWII. It flew as NC1040 for a newspaper company until impressed for use by the USN from 1942 as JRB-2 BuNo 09771 and saw service with the Marines. After the war it was based at NAS Corpus Christi, NAS Alameda, NAS Anacostia and MCAS Cherry Point before remanufacture as an SNB-5P in 1953, then serving at NAS Willow Grove, NAS Glenview, NAS Atlanta and NAS Pensacola. Moved to the museum in 1962 (displayed indoors around 2012)

Taken on strength by the USN as an F3D-2 around 1951. Transferred to USMC and possibly saw service in Korea. Redesigned EF-10B in 1962. The Skyknight was the only Korean War jet fighter that also flew in Vietnam. As one of the last three Skyknights flying, operated by Raytheon for tests from 1968 at Holloman AFB, NM with US Army markings and retired to the museum by 1990. Painted in VMF(N)-513 marks as '12 7/8' which had replaced F-3D-2 '13', supposedly for better luck after the loss in Korea of another with that code

Interestingly this C-9 was first delivered as a civilian DC-9-32 to ATI - Aero Transporti Italiani in 1969 as I-ATIA. When acquired from McDonnell Douglas in 1985 it had already accumulated some 56,284 flight hours but was placed in service with VR-62 named "City of Mount Clemens". After conversion to C-9B (DC-9-32CF) in 1990, it was transferred to VR-46 in 1994 and named "City of Woodstock". Ferried to the NMNA in January 2002

After over 50 years on the seabed, the cockpit of a USAAF Liberator was still remarkably complete and salvaged in 1995. Built in December 1942 at San Diego, this USAAF Liberator was attacked over Romania on 1 August 1943. Badly damaged, the crew headed for their base at Benghazi in Libya but one by one the engines failed and the aircraft ditched in the sea off Antalya (Turkey).
