The worlds last airworthy Britannia being prepared for its ferry flight to the UK for preservation. Former registration 9Q-CJH is being replaced by EL-WXA under which it made its final journey to Kemble in October 1997

Ex 45-0962, NZ3553, ZK-ERI, D6-CAE and SAAF 6871(2). Registered as ZS-LJI in August 1982 and converted to DC-3-65TP by Wonderair. Operated by Virunga Air and later Professional Aviation Services, it was impounded at Beira, Mozambique in July 1998, allegedly for cigarette smuggling. Stored in a hangar there until 2013 when it was parked outside. Still present in a derelict condition in April 2023.

Delivered in January 1937 to Roger Wolfe Kahn (1907-1962), jazz musician, composer, and Grumman test pilot! In 1941 he acquired a G-44 Widgeon, also NC1700. The L-10 was impressed as a C-36A, 42-38341, in 1942, but written off within a few months. The second aircraft is a rare Fairchild 45A, NC16864, and next is the Fleetwings F-4 Sea Bird, NX16793.

Used at St Athan for ground instruction as 8254M from 22 August 1975. It moved to Staverton for storage on 27 June 1985 where it was registered as N86EA. It then went to Gatwick Aircraft Museum at Charlwood on 12 November 1989, back to St Athan in 2013, and then to CAHC at Newquay in December 2019. Following the closure of CAHC it was moved to Lancashire for restoration.

The aircraft, which originally served with the Republic of China Air Force/RoCAF, was on loan from the USAF Museum. When the CAF moved to Midland, TX., in 1991 it was relocated to Warfield Air National Guard Base, Martin State Airport, Middle River, MD., where it was refurbished, and is now displayed painted in Maryland ANG markings with the false serial "10004" and can be seen there on Google Maps street view.
