The last thing I expected on entering 'Lori's' a 1960s style diner, Powell Street, Union Square, San Francisco, was something of aviation interest. The aircraft is suspended from the ceiling in upstairs of the restaurant and the fuselage carries the designation US Army P5 D-25-NA and the serial together with a crew weight of 200lbs. The markings are fictitious though I was assured that the aircraft was real and it is probably some sort of homebuilt. The food was great too !

Previously displayed as 237123, a huge, troop-carrying glider. This is a composite reconstruction built from an original fuselage frame that was found in 1980 in a garden in Ormskirk. Its real identity is not known. The nose is a replica. The code 329 is on the nose and very small behind the cockpit.

When doing some research about this U-2, I was astonished to find I'd seen the very same aircraft just two days before as it is the one suspended in the American Air Museum at Duxford. Now painted in the standard black, the white colours here can be attributed to the fact that the 9th SRW were flying it as a crew trainer. Note the double cockpit (which has now been modified back to single to represent the standard spyplane)

Looking very smart while serving the 101st FIS Massachusetts ANG (note 'Cape Cod' marks on engine nacelle), this machine was retired to Davis Monthan in 1975 and spent the next couple of decades stored there till bought by Classic Wings Corp, becoming N131CW in 1997. Went on to American Airpower Heritage, flying with the CAF Museum at Camarillo, CA in 11.01. Sold again in 4.09 and seen at Chino in regular USAF marks in 6.16
