Photo probably taken at the first airshow in the United States. Frenchman Louis Paulhan was a star aviator and was paid $25,000 to appear with two Farman III and two Blériot XI planes and two other pilots. The Wright Brothers did not take part but were around to sue both Paulhan and Curtiss as the Wrights had patented the aileron. Photo from: California State Library

Coming out of maintenance here in Los Angeles, this early Convairliner crashed on take-off from Palm Springs on a Las Vegas - Palm Springs - San Diego service on 13 February 1958. The right wing leading edge came off. The aircraft landed in the desert at high speed and hit some boulders. It caught fire and some of the 18 passengers were seriously injured.

The abortive East German jetliner often called the Baade 152 had its origins in Junkers jet bomber projects and the 150 bomber, designed by German engineers detained in the USSR. Development took place at Flugzeugwerke Dresden - note that the company name is not VEB, which only meant People-Owned Enterprise. The first flight was on 4 December 1958 but DM-ZYA crashed on 4 March 1959 on only its second flight. The second prototype DM-ZYB flew just once in 1960. Note that the East German flag was identical to the West German flag until 1959. Photo from: SLUB / Deutsche Fotothek

LM233 seen here with 32 mission marks. There is a later photo of it with 60 missions completed. LM233 was damaged at Waddington on March 5, 1945 and unlikely to have been repaired this late in the war. Was based at Bottesford prior to Waddington. 467 Squadron was an Australian one, hence the kangaroo. LM233 was scrapped in 1947. Photo from: State Library of Queensland

What became of this 1940 DC-3 is unclear. It may have been leased to the US Navy as BuNo 99099, which is listed as lost over spurious 'Yamagaga in North Pacific' on 16 February 1944. NC25643 cancelled in July 1944. Alternatively it went to Mexico as XA-CAM. Photo from Clyde Smith, Pan Am station manager in Fairbanks, and probably taken at old Weeks Field which could be used by DC-3s 'with caution'. At times of bad conditions, airlines were allowed to use Ladd Army Airfield from 1940. Photo from: SFO Museum

What became of this 1940 DC-3 is unclear. It may have been leased to the US Navy as BuNo 99099, which is listed as lost over spurious 'Yamagaga in North Pacific' on 16 February 1944. NC25643 cancelled in July 1944. Alternatively it went to Mexico as XA-CAM. Photo from Clyde Smith, Pan Am station manager in Fairbanks, and probably taken at old Weeks Field which could be used by DC-3s 'with caution'. At times of bad conditions, airlines were allowed to use Ladd Army Airfield from 1940. Photo from: SFO Museum

Marine Airways was formed in Juneau in July 1936 and NC196N arrived in August. In 1939, Marine Airways and Alaska Air Transport joined forces, but their new name Alaska Coastal Airlines was not used until 1941 it seems. Photo taken on the Juneau waterfront, very close to the current seaplane base. NC196N operated on wheels occasionally and here they are about to hoist it up to put the floats back on. NC196N was called 'Shaky Jake' as it suffered from a persistent vibration. Nevertheless, it served the people of Juneau for over 30 years. It was preserved in Canada as CF-ATN.

In October 1945 became the first Anson to be civil registered in Australia . Used for aerial survey with Adastra until 1947 when it was condemned due to the Betel glue used during construction of the wing. Rebuilding the wing with casein glue was deemed tooexpensive and AGG was scrapped. Photo from: State Library of Queensland

Flying over the campus of Parks College at KCPS. The school moved into St Louis in 1996. This Parks P-2A was manufactured here in 1929, although assembly was by Detroit Aircraft which marketed the P-2A as the Ryan Speedster for a while. During the 1960s this airframe was owned by modern barnstormer and writer Richard Bach. Photo by: Jim Schroeder / Saint Louis University

Sponsored by The Elks Magazine, four Studebaker President cars drove from NY to LA in 1929 and this plane, painted in the purple and white Elks colours, apparently made an associated "Coast to Coast Flight'. The P-2 was a development of the P-1 with an Axelson radial and top wing ailerons removed - similar changes as on the Fairchild KR-34 which was based on the same design. The P-2A version had a Wright J-6 Whirlwind. A lighter model of 1932 was the P-1H, powered by a 100-hp Kinner radial and produced by Hammond Aircraft as the Hammond 100 Sportster.
