I've come to it late but finding and photographing 'Wrecks and Relics' really gives me a lot of satisfaction now. Finding out about, and appreciating, these beautiful old aircraft (even if by definition they are not looking their best) is tremendously rewarding. This F-4 is stored in a yard just off the Midland Air Museum site.

'Reach 9006' awaits release to go from rw13 at the start of the short hop down to Mildenhall. This Galaxy was an unexpected, but welcome, visitor having diverted in the previous evening due to fog down South. I know that in Texas everything is bigger than anywhere else, but it really must have been heck of a huge bird to have made that mess on the tail!

'Flak-Bait' survived 207 combat missions over Europe, more than any other American aircraft during WWII and is currently undergoing restoration in the Mary Baker Engen Hangar of the Udvar-Hazy Center. The Baltimore factory completed the aircraft in April 1943 and the USAAF assigned it to the 449th BS, 322nd BG. Lt. James J. Farrell of Greenwich, CT flew more missions in 'Flak-Bait' than any other pilot. He named the bomber after 'Flea Bait', his brother's nickname for the family dog.

When the US entered WWII, the USAAF contracted with Interstate for 250 S-1B aircraft, designating the prototype as the XO-63. It was the last aeroplane to use the 'O' (for observation) designation, later the production planes were re-designated L-6s. However, the aircraft had significant overheating problems that were only partially solved and had the dubious distinction that fewer L-6s were built than any other USAAF liaison/utility aircraft. This example is on display at the National Museum of the USAF.
