Minus its port engine at Shannon. This was an ex-Spanish Air Force SAR aircraft (AD.1B-11) which had lain in storage at Palma de Mallorca for some years. It made an emergency landing at Shannon on 12 August 1982 with an engine shut down and spent more than three years there before leaving for Plymouth as G-BMDX on 2 February 1986. It was cancelled from the UK Register in June 1986 and exported to the USA as N2ML, later N23ML and finally N3JY. Reportedly damaged beyond repair when it crashed into the sea off Grand Turk, Turks and Caicos Islands circa 1987.

This spotless Albatross is hands down the best-looking aircraft in Hans Lauridsen's collection. He acquired it in 2008, and painted it as Coast Guard 7238 in 2013, even though it never served with them. It is in fact former US Navy Bu131904. The real Coast Guard 7238 was ex USAF SA-16A 51-7238, c/n 325. As far as I am aware, this Albatross hasn't flown at all since being painted in these markings.

Albatros N99HU looks a bit bleak, but it has a long history. Orginally built for the US Navy as a PF-1A with BuNo 124306, it served with the USAF after being delivered as 49-0082. It was sold to Brazil and served with the Brazilian Air Force as FAB6537 between 1959 and 1980. It became PP-ZAX and was seen in open storage at Campo de Marte in 1991. Became N99HU on 4 October 1994. Carlisle is a small airport in rural Pennsylvania and this Albatross was first reported here in 2007.

This was the last USAF HU-16 in operational service and established a world altitude record for twin-engine amphibians when it reached 32,883 ft in July 1973. Two weeks later it was retired and flown to the museum. Since being taken on strength in 1952 it had served in the US, Greenland, Germany, Canada, Japan and Philippines, ending up with the 301st ARRS at Homestead AFB, FL from 1967

The HU-16B (and SA-16B before it) is a long-wing conversion of the standard HU-16A / SA-16A. No HU-16Bs were built, they are all converted HU-16As.

This airframe is often mistakenly identified as an SA-16B or HU-16B (long-wing conversion). In reality, it is the only unconverted, standard-wing HU-16A on display in the USA.

The Albatross is another type for which Warner Robins ALC was responsible for program management and logistics support for all those in the USAF inventory. This one was delivered to the USAF in 1954 and assigned to the 41st ARS at Hamilton AFB, CA. In 1964 it was transferred to the 33rd ARS at Naha AB, Okinawa, Japan making numerous deployments to Vietnam and performing rescue operations from various bases in the area. In 1967 it returned to the US, being retired from the 301st ARRTS at Homestead AFB, FL in June 1971. In 1983 it became one of the first aircraft displayed at Warner Robins
