Looking superb in Evergreen's full colours, this is a Douglas-built B-17 with an interesting history. Flew as a CB-17G then VB-17G and became N809Z, used by the CIA with Skyhook Surface to Air Recovery System gear fitted in the nose for Project Coldfeet. This involved the dropping and air retrieval of agents with Soviet ant-submarine warfare intelligence from a polar ice station abandoned by the Russians in 5.63. After fire bomber service, restored to original military identity as per my 1988 photo

Still in the colours of former owner Martin Baker, with whom she was based at Chalgrove as company transport from 1958, this Dak served Air Atlantique between 1981 and 1984, then going into storage at Coventry. B/u 9.98. The nose was reportedly shipped to Kuwait for a restuarant, and by 2007 the rear fuselage still survived at the Pinewood Studios in Iver Heath, UK.

This 1953 reconaissance Canberra was placed on display at the Manston fire school in 6.69 (allocated 8049M after 231 OCU service), along with a Javelin and Spitfire, but was scrapped in 3.90. Based on the Canberra B.2, the PR.3 had a 14" section inserted in the forward fuselage to house seven cameras, and replaced the Mosquito PR.34 in RAF service. Nose now at the Flixton museum

'Superb' by name, superb by nature. One of my favourite aircraft, now preserved just a couple of miles from where I then lived - great memories of some rides LHR-BRU around the time of this shot, then of seeing her arrive on the shortened runway at Brooklands for the museum on 17.10.96 (lamp posts were temporarily removed specially from the road outside) - the last ever flight of a Vanguard

While inbound from Wilmington on 19.6.80, TriStar wake vortex caused this Caravelle to land heavily at the approach end of r/y 26. The left main gear collapsed and the aircarft came to rest almost a mile past the runway threshold. Originally delivered to United as N1010U in 10.61 and sold to Sterling as OY-SAM in 1.72, going back to the States with Midwest Air Charter in 5.78

A flying survivor from the 396 of the French equivalent of the DHC Beaver. It saw action against Algerian guerillas in the late 1950s, but the noisy P&W R-985 engine was a disadvantage as it could be heard approaching long before other aircraft.
