This Jaguar was delivered to the AdlA in 1977. At the start of Operation Desert Storm on January 17, 1991, the plane hit by a missile during the raid on Al-Jaber. Dismantled and repatriated to France on board two Transall C160s, it was transferred in 1994 to the Châteaudun AB 279 where it served as an instructional airframe for the training of mechanics in combat damage repairs.

The interwar period was a prosperous period for light aviation, one facet of which was the development of aerial aerobactics as a competitive sport. The 1927 Zurich 'Competition of Aerial Virtuosity' is considered to be the first unofficial world championship in this new discipline. The winner was Alfred Fronval flying this M-S AI. He died a year later and the manufacturer Robert Morane sold the plane to the museum. It was extensively overhauled in the early 1970s and underwent a complete restoration between 2013 and 2016 to retore it to its 1927 appearance.

Equipped with a swept wing, the Mystère IV was capable of reaching Mach 1 in a dive. In total 411 frames were produced between 1954 and 1958, at first with the Rolls-Royce Tay engine or later with the more powerful Verdon. This example is in reality 105 although it is on display in the colours of a 2e escadre (2nd squadron) plane.

At the end of the war, this Fw-190 was under repair in France. The Cravant Fw-190 repair shop still contained enough parts for more than 70 examples to be built by SNCAC (the successor to Farman) under the designation NC 900, without taking into account the multiple sub-versions to which they belonged. Therefore, this Fw-190 A-8 was rebuilt as a NC 900 with cn 62 and with an A-7 wing. It is on display in the Hall Seconde Guerre mondiale It wears the colours of Oberst Josef Priller, Kommodore of JG 26, an ace with 101 victories, two thirds of them on the Fw-190.

As early as 1915, Hugo Junkers was working on an all-metal low-wing aircraft. This innovative concept was rejected by the Luftstreitkräfte despite the duralumin structure that offered pilots relatively greater safety. Finally, the J.9 design was approved, designated D-I but only arrived to front line pilots in the last months of the war. Despite the qualities of speed and maneuverability, only 41 copies were built, in particular due to a difficult construction. This plane is the only extant example that survives today.
