This view of a pair of 809 NAS Buccs shows the robust construction which earned the type various nicknames including 'The Brick'. XN982 was production aircraft no. 49, originally ordered in 1961 as an S.1 but not accepted until 3.65 at Lossiemouth. Damaged at Cecil Field, FL, some time after this photo, returned to UK as deck cargo and to 19 MU St Athan. Scrapped at Brough 7.92. XV868 behind was also scrapped in the same year, at Elgin

Looking magnificent in Malev colours, this Il-14 never in fact flew with the airline. It is an ex-Soviet AF example (ex 04 red) that was beautifully restored a couple of years before this shot, being given the next-in-sequence registration to follow those which were assigned to the Malev Il-14 fleet in the late 1950s (HA-MAA to HA-MAK). HA-MAL was actually allocated to an An-2

From 1967 to the mid-1970s this C-7 operated out of Cam Ranh Bay AB, South Vietnam with the 483TCW/TAW/TFW, typically into unprepared airstrips along the borders of Laos and Cambodia in support of Special Forces. From 1977 assigned to the 357TAS (AL ANG) at Maxwell AFB, and transferred to the US Army there in 1987 for their Golden Knights Parachute Team. Retired to Dover in 1992, but was incorrect painted as "AF39-760" instead of "AF63-760".

From 1957 the USAF bought 160 Cessna 310s as light administrative liaison, cargo and utility transports under the original designation L-27A, later changed to U-3A. 35 more were delivered in 1960-1961 as U-3Bs with upgraded specification. This one was decommissioned in 1972 and arrived at the AMC Museum in 2.09

Spring Airlines was considering the fitment of standing-room cabins, subject to Civil Aviation Authority of China approval, the Shanghai-based low-cost carrier claiming that they could sell tickets for 30-40% less. They would configure the A320 with 24 premium and 78 economy seats then 120 standing spots with padded back and armrests. Not surprisingly Airbus were not supportive!
