Little is known of the service history of this Nakajima-built Zero, other than that it was captured by US forces in 1944, after which this cockpit section was transferred to the RAF Museum in 1961.

Seen arriving back at AirVenture as the sun goes down after what I suspect was a photoshoot with one of the Wildcats. Didn't know it was a replica.

This Mitsubishi A6M2 was recovered from Ballale Island in the South West Pacific in 1968 and restored back to an airworthy condition with a Pratt and Whitney engine as N58245 . It was sold to the Pacific Aviation Museum as a static display in 2005 and its registration cancelled. The official FAA c/n was a part number and the c/n often quoted for this aircraft is 5356, which provided the cockpit. Other c/ns are 5451 (forward fuselage) and 5355. The markings however are for an aircraft that was forced down after the attack on Pearl Harbour.

This 1943 Zero has been converted to a two-seater during its restoration to airworthy status with an R-1830 engine. Whilst the second seat helps to earn the warbird's upkeep I suppose, I understand it does represent a wartime field modification to reconnaissance aircraft. An A6M-2K two-seat trainer variant also existed.

As one can guess from the folded-wingtips this was a Naval Zero and painted to represent a section leader's aircraft from the aircraft carrier 'Zuiho' during the Battle of the Bismarck Sea, March 1943. This plane was discovered near the city of Kavieng on New Ireland, Papua New Guinea and after restoration was placed on display at the National Museum for the USAF in 2004.

Seen in the Commemorative Air Force hangar. There were plans to return this aircraft to the air and it was substantially intact. However it was sold to the Pacific Aviation Museum at Pearl Harbor.

Seen in the Commemorative Air Force hangar. There were plans to return this aircraft to the air and it was substantially intact. However it was sold to the Pacific Aviation Museum at Pearl Harbor.

This hulk has been relocated to Duxford while the IWM in London undergoes refurbishment. Nothing is really known about this particular airframe except that it was evaluated at the end of WWII by the Allied Technical Air Intelligence Unit, hence, the scribbled initials.

This Zero was built in 1942 and operated from the airstrip on the infamous Pacific island of Ballale (now part of the Solomon Islands). After the island was abandoned by the Japanese this and a few other aircraft were left behind and gradually overtaken by the jungle. The wrecks were recovered in 1968 and this Zero was restored (using parts of other Zeros) and is now on display at the National Naval Aviation Museum.

Sneaking in amongst all the Japanese 'imposters' forming up to take part in the 'Tora, Tora, Tora' demo for Airsho 2011 was this real Zero, and one of very few examples still flying. I really enjoyed my time in Midland at the super warbird fest that was Airsho 2011.

This Zero was built in 1942 and operated from Buna airfield, PNG by the Tainan Kokutai. The right wing was torn off during a bad landing and so the remaning airframe was abandoned. After the war the hulk was shipped to Brisbane and the rear fuselage used to build a composite Zero for testing. Somehow the rear fuselage has survived and is now on display at the Planes of Fame museum.

This aircraft is a long-term restoration project for the Imperial War Museum and is totally original. It was recovered from Taroa in the Marshall Islands in 1991 having been ditched and recovered. It had been a part of the 252nd Japanese Naval Air Group that had been based there in 1942 and 1943, Though badly corroded and with its engine missing it seems somehow poignant in that state
