Delivered new to American Airlines as N6106A, and later flown by McCulloch International and PSA before joining the Honduran AF in 1979. Flown as HR-EMA for a period from 1992 to simplify overseas flights, the aircraft was withdrawn from use in the mid 1990s but flew a limited number of relief flights in the aftermath of Hurricane Mitch in 1998 before being returned to storage. In 2011 she was purchased by Airspray as C-GNPB but following a problematic ferry flight and thorough inspection on arrival at Red Deer, the decision was made to withdraw the aircraft for spares use.

One of six Fiat assembled F-86Ks acquired by Honduras in 1970. Originally supplied to West Germany and later sold to Venezuela, they arrived in Honduras in very poor condition and although four were eventually assembled, only two (FAH1100 and FAH1101) ever became operational, the first of these flying in December 1975. Seen here marked as FAH1000, this aircraft was originally FAH1102 and is displayed in the museum as such at time of upload.

One of five Kingcobras acquired by Honduras in 1948/49. Four returned to a collector in the US in 1960 but this one remained to be displayed outside the officers club at Base Aérea Coronel Hernán Acosta Mejía, Toncontin. Displayed variously as '401' and '214' the correct serial is in fact 403 ex 43-11732. The aircraft has since been refurbished and now carries correct serial.

One of several Sabre MK IV a/c in storage at San Pedro Sula in 1984. The First Tactical Group of the Honduran Air Force operated them, but by 1984 they had been replaced with the Cessna A-37B. This Sabre was operated by the RAF as XB697, transferred to the Yugoslavian AF as 11059, and in 1976 transferred to the Honduran AF.

This was one of several Sabre MK. IV a/c in storage at San Pedro Sula in 1984. When I took this slide they had been replaced at the base with Cessna A-37B aircraft. This Sabre was assigned to the RAF as XB978, then transferred to the Yugoslavian Air Force as 11077, and in 1976 transferred to the Honduran Air Force.

This F-86K was built by Fiat for the German Luftwaffe, who sold it to Venezuela in 1966. In 1969 Honduras purchased five F-86Ks from Venezuela and operated them until 1980, but found them very expensive to maintain in airworthy condition. When I took this slide in 1984 there were at least two located at La Mesa Air Base at San Pedro Sula.

This F-86K was built under license by Fiat for the German Luftwaffe. In 1966 it was sold to the Venezuelan Air Force. In 1969 Honduras purchased 5 F-86K a/c from Venezuela and operated them until 1980. There were at least two at La Mesa when I took this slide in 1984. This aircraft was in fairly good condition and appeared capable of flight.

Delivered to the USAAF as 45-1032 in 1945. To Honduras as FAH 308 in 1970. Withdrawn from use at Tegucigalpa-Toncontin by 1999. Remains have probably been scrapped.

In the foreground is C-47D FAH-311. The Honduran Air Force received this a/c and other C-47Ds in October 1974. FAH-311 appears to be a bit of a mystery, as its previous USAF s/n and manufacturer s/n are unknown. In the background are USAF C-130 a/c which are preparing to airlift the ground echelon of the 169th Tactical Air Support Squadron, Illinois Air National Guard back to Peoria, IL.
