This former Singapore AF Hunter still carries its 141 Sqn markings. This unit operated Hunters from 1972 until 1992 from Tengah AB. Its Singapore AF roundel was replaced by a RAF roundel. From 1957 until 1970 it was operated by the RAF as XF437, originally as a Hunter F6, later in Hunter FGA9 configuration. The aircraft was modified to become a Hunter FR74S with camera nose in 1970.

This Nord 1002 has been painted to represent a German Messerschmidt Bf108 owned by the German fighter pilot Franz Stigler and named after his wife Grit. Stigler became famous for escorting a heavily damaged B-17, which was flying on just one engine, back to England rather than shooting it down with his Me109.

Only two Autocars were delivered to the RAN and operated from 1949 until 1963 (A11-300 and A11-301). This is a former civilian aircraft, built in 1954, that has been restored to represent A11-300.

This is not the original A68-769, which was a North American built P-51D. This is a Commonwealth Aircraft Corporation built CA-18 Mk 21 with serial A68-110 , delivered to the RAAF as such in 1948. It was restored to flying condition and converted to a P-51D-5-NT by North American in Dallas, Texas in 1999.

The Soviet AF colours were applied in Australia in 2007. As far as I know, there are no records of this aircraft actually having flown as such before the collapse of the Soviet Union. However, aircraft no. 332514 definitely was delivered to the Soviet AF as 64 red, so it is not unlikely that 33516 actually served as 66 red in the 1980s.
