This former Emerald Airways aircraft was painted in these nice Janes Aviation colours in May 2008, and is the only aircraft ever to have worn them. It was operated on the airline's freight services only briefly during the summer of 2008. Withdrawn from use and stored at Blackpool in Oct 2008. Flown to Southend 2 Mar 2009 for continued storage and seen here as such, even though parked on Southend's active apron. Became N687AP in May 2011, destined for export to Kenya, but remained stored at Southend. Was still there by May 2017, but probably scrapped not much later.

Parked on Southend's operational apron. This Merlin went into service with Binair in December 2001, and was withdrawn from use by them 17 years later, in October 2018.

This is the former RAAF A10-603, which was withdrawn from use 30 Jun 2004. On 16 Feb 2005 it departed Australia for Southend, UK and arrived there on 20 Feb 2005. Stored at Southend until sold to the adjoining Skylark Hotel in Jul 2010. Lifted onto their site on 19 Jul 2010, together with sistership VH-AHL (ex RAAF A10-606). By 2017 both aircraft were in a very neglected state and partly overgrown, but both were still there by Jun 2018. Apologies for the poor view and the obtrusive wing, but no better angle was possible.

Stored at Southend with SAS tail logo and titles painted out, but still with "Operated by Transwede" titles. Sold as G-CDOE in Feb 2010, but did not return to service. Eventually stored at Bacau, Romania and registration cancelled 1 August 2014. Fate unknown.

Ex Royal Aircraft Establishment XW750, last flight as such 31 Jan 2005 and stored at Boscombe Down. To G-ASJT on 9 Jan 2007, then to N748D on 18 Jan 2007. Briefly served as an instructional airframe at Finningley, but flown to Southend 20 Dec 2008 for storage. This aircraft was dismantled in the summer of 2009, and on 3 Nov 2009 it was trucked away to an unknown destination, fate unclear. Shortly after this photo was taken, registration N748D was allocated to another HS748, c/n 1689.

This is the former RAAF A10-606 (note "6" still visible above the windscreen), which was withdrawn from use 30 Jun 2004. It departed Australia for Southend, UK on 27 Feb 2005 and arrived there on 3 Mar 2005. Stored at Southend until sold to the adjoining Skylark Hotel in Jul 2010. Lifted onto their site on 19 Jul 2010, together with sistership VH-AMQ (ex RAAF A10-603). By 2017 both aircraft were in a very neglected state and partly overgrown, but both were still there by Jun 2018.

Emerald Airways, and their pax transport brand Flyjem, ceased operations on 12 May 2006. G-JEMX was stored at Southend, and never flew again. It was broken up shortly after this photo was taken.

In fake markings, with a serial based on the aircraft's c/n. After years of storage at Avra Valley, AZ, this aircraft was flown to North Weald in late Sep 2002, together with C-54Q N44914 seen parked behind. Both were intended for use in a movie about the Berlin Airlift, but this project was cancelled and neither aircraft flew again. N31356 was eventually broken up here 13 years later, in early Dec 2015. Its forward fuselage was trucked out to the RAF Burtonwood Heritage Centre (part of the Gulliver's World theme park) near Warrington on 9 Dec 2015. N44914 was still at North Weald by Jun 2018.

Acquired by Hotelsuites.nl for conversion into a luxury hotel suite for two at Teuge airport, where it arrived (by truck) on 24 April 2009. It is seen here shortly after its arrival and still in its original Interflug colours. The name "Fani" was only carried on the left side. Less than three months later the aircraft had already been fully repainted in grey and white Hotelsuites.nl colours. The Ilyushin was still there by July 2018.

Delivered to the Rijksluchtvaartschool in August 1946 (faded logo still visible on the nose), and withdrawn from use in 1965. Donated to the Blinden-Instituut "St.-Henricus" in Grave in 1968, but soon after acquired by the Kleyngeld car salvage company, in 1972. Was initially used as an eye-catcher on concrete blocks in their salvage yard, but by 1990 it had been placed on the roof, as seen here. On 18 December 2012 it was removed from there and trucked to the Arnhems Oorlogsmuseum 40-45 in Schaarsbergen near Arnhem for restoration and display.

Preserved on poles and available for business meetings at the City Resort congress centre in Mill, Netherlands. The aircraft was acquired from PS Aero and arrived here in June 2008. The German flag on the fin was replaced with a Dutch one, and it still has the "PS Aero" logo on the nose and on the rear fuselage, but other than that it is still in full German Navy markings, including serial 6110.

Originally delivered to Trans-Canada Airlines as CF-TGQ in Jun 1955, and acquired by Air Inter on 6 Mar 1964. It was registered as F-BMCF on 14 Mar 1964 and served with the airline as such until withdrawn from use on 25 Jul 1975. The aircraft was then donated to the Institut Aéronautique Amaury de la Grange that same month for instructional use. The instructional use had ceased by the mid 1980s, and in about 1987 the aircraft was restored in full Air Inter colours and moved the the institute's entrance to serve as a gate guard, as seen here.

This Caravelle (ex Sterling OY-SAG) served with Air Inter since January 1982. It was withdrawn from use in the early 1990s and donated to the Institut Aéronautique Amaury de la Grange on 26 May 1993, for instructional use. It was still there by mid 2017.

This Noratlas was taken on charge on 23 Nov 1956 and struck off charge on 20 Aug 1987. The next day it was flown to Merville, on delivery to the Institut Aéronautique Amaury de la Grange for instructional use. It was still there by mid 2017. The remnants of one of the aircraft's previous codes, 63-VL (carried from 1 Dec 1978 until 2 Feb 1982 while serving with ET 1/63), are still vaguely visible on the tail boom.
