This is the unique FICON (FIghter CONveyor) modification of the prototype Thunderflash, designed to operate as a parasite fighter from a mother-ship B-36 (in fact GRB-36F) using a trapeze mechanism. Whilst technically successful, the operation was very challenging even for experienced pilots with several near disasters while unhooking or recovering. After a number of RF-84Ks were trialled by SAC in 1955-56, the project was dropped. The aircraft is now displayed indoors in the 91st SRS markings carried in the mid-1950s

The Gendarmerie Royale (Royal State Security Forces) displayed four machines - this Puma, an Ecureuil, a Trinidad and an Ayers Thrush sprayer. Typical of the friendly and informative crews with each aircraft, here they didn't mind helping to temporarily shift the barriers for a better shot

Acquired by Maximus in 3.07 but no stranger to the region as formerly operated by the UAE AF as 1216. Prior to that was PH-SHE and originally TR-KKD with the Gabon Govt from 1981. Returned to the UAE AF in 3.11. In their varied fleet, Abu Dhabi-based Maximus had another L100, three II-76s, an An-124 and three A300Fs. The reg A6-MAX was re-used on a FlyDubai B738MAX in 8.17

Although Aosta-based Air Vallée suspended operations in 9.09, they recommenced domestic flights from Rimini in summer 2010 but closed down again in 2013. Here on a charter flight, this is one of two 328JETs that were operated in a 31-seat configuration. The rest of the fleet was made up of helicopters. The Dornier became OY-NCJ with Sun-Air in 2014

In its infancy, Ryanair operated this Convair on lease from Partnair briefly on services to Eire. Shame their aircraft aren't quite so interesting nowadays! Originally a KLM CV-340 which later flew with Mohawk and Lake Central who had her converted to 580 before becoming Allegheny. After the Norwegian phase, sold as C-FKFL and in 2017 current with Air Freight NZ (ZK-KFH)
