This Chinook saw for sure many combat landings in Afghanistan, it is weathered by oil leaks and is has sand all over. ZA707 was delivered to the RAF on 28 September 1981 as a HC1 version. It was later converted to HC2 and much later to HC4 and even to HC6A. As such, it was still flying within the RAF in 2024.

Originally conceived as a three-engined Supermarine Southampton under the designation Southampton X. Other than the name, the aircraft built had no connection to the Southampton and was renamed Scapa. Only 15 were built before production switched to the Supermarine Stranraer.

The Flycatcher was one of the earliest aircraft designed specifically for carrier operation. It also could be fitted with floats or amphibious floats for operation from catapults. The floats in the photo are not amphibious. This early production aircraft has an Armstrong-Siddeley Jaguar engine. Flycatchers were also delivered with Bristol Jupiters.

Private venture designed to meet RAF specification F.7/30. The engine is a Rolls Royce Goshawk installed behind the pilot. Also known as the PV.4. In the end, specification F.7/30 was cancelled. The RAF did have a preference for one of the contenders, the Gloster Gladiator, and a new specification written around it. Photo from: Imperial War Museums

The T.S.R. II was the prototype for the production model of the Swordfish. It had followed on from the T.S.R. I which in turn evolved from the S.9/30. The photo here shows it as it first flew with small bumps on the Townsend ring. A smooth Townsend ring was fitted in 1935. K4190 was kept busy because it was used for trials for both the landplane and seaplane versions. Photo from: Imperial War Museums

The T.S.R. II was the prototype for the production model of the Swordfish. It had followed on from the T.S.R. I which in turn evolved from the S.9/30. The photo here shows it as it first flew with small bumps on the Townsend ring. A smooth Townsend ring was fitted in 1935. K4190 was kept busy because it was used for trials for both the landplane and seaplane versions. Photo from: Imperial War Museums

This was the first production Anson. It was moved around between the Avro factory at Woodford and A&AEE at Martlesham Heath, RAE Farnborough and RAF Gosport, which focused on naval and coastal operations and training. In 1939 it was finally delivered to an operational squadron. On October 13 that year K6152 overran RAF Catterick and was wrecked. Photo from: Imperial War Museums

The Hoopoe was a private venture naval fighter that first flew in 1927 and went through many changes before it was sent for service trials in 1932. By then progress had overtaken it and the Hawker Nimrod became the FAA's preference. The photo shows the Hoopoe in its 1929 configuration with an Armstrong-Siddeley Jaguar engine in place of the original Bristol Mercury and single-bay wings in place of two-bay wings. The Jaguar engine was later replaced with an Armstrong Siddeley Panther. N237 was scrapped in 1932. Photo from: Imperial War Museums

The first 35 Tiger Moths for the RAF were powered by Gipsy III engines as the Tiger Moth I. They were followed by thousands of DH-82A Tiger Moth II which were powered by the more powerful Gipsy Major I. K2578 had a short service life and was stuck off charge in 1934.
