Otto Lilienthal's Normalsegelapparat was built in 1894 and was the first glider in the world that was built in series, thought to be 12 in total. The Replica seen here in the museum was built in 1989 by Alfred Lohmeyer.

Octave Chanute in the USA was quite successful with his 1896 glider. In 1904 a slightly different version was built for the Saint Louis Exposition where it was flown daily from Oct. 7 to 25. After that it was shipped to France where it is now in the Musée de l'Air in Paris. The one shown here is a replica built by Carsten Brinkmeier, finished in Jun-2006. A few flight attempts were made, but for safety reasons no full flight was made. In Oct-2006 it was handed over to the Deutsches Segelflugmuseum at Wasserkuppe.

The front fuselage section of replica eight-seat General Aircraft GAL-48 Hotspur II training glider. This 1940-designed type was much used throughout the war to train pilots and crews for the airborne landings to come, which used larger gliders. No Hotspurs survived and this replica is painted in accurate markings of the period and is fully fitted out internally.

Ferdinand Schulz built his FS-3 in 1922. He took part in the Rhön 1922 meeting but the technical commission did not allow him to fly in the contest for lack of structural rigidity. However, two years later, on May 18, 1924, he set a new world endurance record of 8 hours and 42 minutes with it. Unbelievable that somebody could sit on such a small seat for such a long time, unprotected against the cold wind, and without having eaten anything! The aircraft shown here is a replica built in 1975 by Klaus Heyn.

In this area of the Datangshan museum there are two unidentified C-46s positioned between an Il-62 (B-2024) and an Il-12 (5116). This is the C-46 positioned closest to the Il-62. Note, previously there were three unmarked C-46s, I understand one has been transferred to the museum at Xiedao.

Tandem-wing aircraft designed by Samuel Langley in 1903. The pilot sat on the open fuselage structure mid-way between the two sets of wings. The design was unstable and the machine crashed into the water after a few seconds on each of its two attempts to fly. After modifications in 1914 it flew for short distances. It is now displayed in the NASM in its original 1903 form.

This Hunter is actually a composite build consisting mainly of the fuselage section of Royal Danish Air Force E-430 supplemented by the port wing of XF418 and the starbord wing of XG226. Now beautifully restored and on display at the Gatwick Aviation Museum.

In this area of the Datangshan museum there are two unidentified C-46s between an Il-62 (B-2024) and an Il-12 (5116). This is the C-46 positioned closest to the Il-12. Note, previously there were three unmarked C-46s, I understand one has been transferred to the museum at Xiedao.

An interesting exhibit in the Wernigerode aviation museum. This Jodel was never completed by its Swiss owner. Should it have a construction number assigned?

In the Luftwaffenmuseum, a group of Luftwaffe recruits is taught about the bombing of Rotterdam by Heinkel He 111s of KG 54 in May 1940. This machine was on temporary display in the Dutch city in 2015. It is actually a 1951 CASA 2.111, B.2H-109, later to B.2I-117 when re-engined with RR Merlins. Used for the film 'Battle of Britain' in the late 1960s. To the former German air force museum at Uetersen in 1969; moved to Gatow in 1995. The markings are of a KG 55 aircraft.

In truth I only went up to the Museum of Flight's Personal Courage Wing as there were too many people about everywhere else. Usually early aviation is low on my priority list but now I'm really happy to have spent time there. This Ca.20 is recognised as the world's first fighter and was stored by the Caproni family in a monastery for 85 years before being dismantled and transported to Seattle. A real piece of aviation history, amongst many, at the fantastic Museum of Flight!

This 1911 racer aircraft is seen in the Musee de l'Air et de l'Espace. It could be fitted with a variety of engines (here a Nieuport-Darracq of 28 Hp) It held several speed and distance records in 1911 and was rebuilt in the Nieuport factory as long ago as 1919.

After time at the SST Aviation Exhibit Center in Florida, where it was allowed to fall into disrepair, it then moved to California and now to the Museum of Flight Restoration Center at PAE. Hopefully this important piece of Boeing heritage will soon go on permanent display at the Museum of Flight at BFI. This view shows the forward cockpit section with the cantilever mechanism responsible for drooping the nose.
