In the autumn of 1945, this P-39 was found complete (and presumably still crated) on a stray railway wagon near Radom. It was still it its USAAF markings so, presumably, a lend lease airframe that had been transported to the front, but as the war had progressed the plane had become surplus to requirements. The Airacobra was puchased by the Wawelberg & Rotwand Technical School in Warsaw and used for instructional teaching. It then passed to the Mechanical Faculty of the Warsaw University of Technology, however, in all the intervening years the fuselage, the serial and other parts have become lost.

The prototype N-156F, re-designated YF-5A in 1962. Seen prior to being exhibited in the Museum of Flight Great Gallery which opened in 1987.

This plane was originally built as a AT-6C, given the cn 88-10516 and TOC with the USAAF as 41-32508. The plane was then remanufactured as a T-6G and assigned a new cn 182-415 and TOC once again with the USAAF, this time as 51-14728. It came to the Muzeum Lotnictwa Polskiego around 1993 and received these fake markings.
