It looks like these three four-engined Fokkers are identical but there was only one F.XXXVI (F.36, up to 36 passengers), and G-AFZP and G-AFXR, behind, are of the downsized F.XXII (F.22, 22 pax) variety. Having replaced them with DC-3s, KLM sold these three aircraft to Scottish Aviation at Prestwick in August 1939 for military service as navigation trainers, their unit becoming No 1 Air Observer and Navigation School on 1 November. The F.XXXVI crashed on 21 May 1940 on take-off from Prestwick. Military serial HM161 does not seem to be worn. Photo from: Imperial War Museums

Built to compete in the Istres-Damascus-Paris Air Race of 1937, and paid for by popular subscription in Romania. Christened Alba Iulia, it was piloted by Captain Alexander Papana. YR-AHA was never delivered to Romania and remained in the US as NX2344. The two wing engines were 250hp Menascos and the nose engine was a 420hp Ranger.

Crashed during a test flight from Floyd Bennett Field on March 29, 1932, killing Captain Yoshinori Nagoya. The J-3 was a special long-range conversion of the CH-400 and this aircraft appears to have originally been c/n 632. The fuselage was deepened to provide more space for fuel. Nagoya was planning a non-stop flight from across the Pacific from Los Angeles to Tokyo. The rest of the crew for the proposed Pacific flight were not on the test flight.

It seemed like a good idea - improving the aerodynamics of seaplanes by using a large central float or pontoon that could be retracted to conform with the fuselage. Built at the Blackburn seaplane factory in Dumbarton, the B-20 prototype V8914 first flew on 26 March 1940 but crashed on 7 April, probably due to aileron flutter. The project was then given up, although the concept had shown promise and was kept secret, making the B-20 one of the least-known British aircraft of the war. Photo from: Air Ministry (UK)

The H-13D gave the Bell 47 its familiar look with the fishbowl canopy and was produced in the new Forth Worth plant which started manufacturing HSL helicopters on 2 January 1952. 51-2450 was one of the first H-13Ds off the line. A close contemporary, 51-2454, was already active with X Army Corps in Korea on 15 July 1952 when it was shot down. The photo was still issued by the Bell Aircraft Corporation, PO Box One in Buffalo, New York. Photo from: Bell
