Packed up and ready to be hauled off along with a wing from a Grumman F-9. The Piasecki was on its way to the Grissom air base in Indiana but is not currently listed as a exhibit. The connection is that astronaut Gus Grissom was picked up a Piasecki HUP after his splashdown on the Mercury 2 mission.

Not much left of this former FAA DC-3. Last registered as N2299Y, in 1978, but now with only its old FAA registration N47 visible on the fin. Most of her useful parts have probably gone to keep Academy's own fleet flying.

This is the oldest surviving DC-3 type aircraft. She was the sixth DC-3 off the line and was delivered to American Airlines on July 12, 1936 as a Douglas Sleeper Transport (DST). Academy Airlines bought her in 1970 and used her as a freighter for a number of years. Made airworthy by Frank and Glen Moss and flown to Shell Creek Airport in Punta Gorda, FL where it is currently (January 2018) being restored to its original DST configuration.
