In its service life this Colt flew, from around January 1967, with the Polish AF. It is now preserved outside this restaurant (zajazd = inn) in Bobrek but no longer carries the name 'Antoni'.

In reality this is T.2B-144 that flew with the EdA from 1949. In 1974 it became D-CIAS with Air Classik and then from 1994 it was displayed on the spectator terrace at FRA. In 1996 it moved to the Besucherpark at MUC and acquired these false markings. The real D-ANOY 'Rudolph von Thüna' was w/o in December 1938 a flight between Berlin and Vienna.

This Connie was originally delivered to Air France as F-BHML in February 1957 and also had spells with Tunis Air and Compagnie Air Fret before being retired in August 1976. It is now on display at the MUC Besucherpark as D-ALEM, the L-1049G that operated Lufthansa's first Intercontinental flight from Hamburg to New York in June 1955.

Almost 280 Do-24s were built in various versions between 1937 and 1945. They were used by the Luftwaffe during WWII for long-range SAR & reconnaissance and by the EdA until the 1960s. This plane is a composite from the fuselage of Aviolanda-built WNr. 3385, mated with the original wing of the Do 24 that became the Do 24 ATT, WNr 3404. It was previously a gate-guard at the Dornier factory at Oberpfaffenhofen but is displayed at the Deutsches Museum - Flugwerft Schleissheim with EdA markings from 1960-1969.

The Do-31 was the only VTOL transport aircraft with jet engines ever built. Two prototypes were used between 1967-1969 as experimental aircraft for researching and testing but the project was cancelled in 1970. This aircraft was initially put into storage at Oberpfaffenhofen, then went for several years on display in the open in the courtyard of the Deutsches Museum in Munich. After restoration it is now on display at the Deutsches Museum - Flugwerft Schleissheim.

I previously photographed a wrecked Horten glider at the NASM Udvar-Hazy Center and so this was a real thrill to see how they really looked like - and how tight the fit was for the pilot. This example was discovered in Germany at the end of WWII and flown by British officers until 1950. When it became part of the Deutsches Museum - Flugwerft Schleissheim collection in 1971, the mid-section was missing and was painstakingly reconstructed during restoration work.

The last time I visited the Letecké Muzeum Kunovice in 2015 this plane was in a pretty sorry state. It is great to see it being refurbished and it will re-emerge painted in the scheme it wore whilst serving with the 2. letecký školní pluk (2nd Air School Regiment) in Košice.

The last time I visited the Letecké Muzeum Kunovice in 2015 this plane was in a pretty sorry state. It is great to see it being refurbished and it will re-emerge painted in the scheme it wore whilst serving with the 2. letecký školní pluk (2nd Air School Regiment) in Košice.

This L-29 was TOC in February 1962 and flew with the 2. letecký školní pluk (2nd Air School Regiment). The date of decomissioning appears to be unknown but the plane now stands guard (in front of a supermarket) in Sudice.

After the success of the Let L.410 twin engine turboprop in the late 70s, Aeroflot requested a possible replacement for its An-24 aircraft. This is the first prototype produced for the Let-610 program and is now preserved in a metal recycling company's yard in Staré Město.

The Fw 44 Stieglitz (Goldfinch) was one of the best-known training and aerobatic planes of the 1940s and served until the end of WWII as the standard training plane of the Luftwaffe. This example on display at the Deutsches Museum - Flugwerft Schleissheim was built under licence in Sweden by ASJA/Saab and used by the Swedish AF for flight training until 1955. It was then sold to and flown by various private individuals and flying clubs until the 1980s until donated to the museum.

The Mü-10 Milan dates from 1934 and was the first German two-seater high-performance glider and only the second to have a tubular steel/fabric fuselage. In May 1935 the Mü-10 made the first-ever crossing of the Alps by glider, a flight that also set new records for altitude and distance, and was the first aircraft in Bavaria to be certified as a glider after WWII. It is now on display at the Deutsches Museum - Flugwerft Schleissheim.

It doesn't look much but this Z-37 is in a bit better condition that previous photos on the web. There were guys working nearby on an An-2 so maybe this is slowly being put back together. The set of wings to the right belonged to OK-RJJ, possibly they are there to be mated to this hulk. Operated by Air Special
