Built in 1952 and supposedly named The Flying Camel, but no sign of that here. In August 1961 it became SE-BDY with Transair Sweden who leased it to the United Nations. On 18 September 1961 it was destroyed when it flew into terrain on approach to Ndola, Zambia (FLND) while carrying the then UN Secretary-General, Dag Hammarskjöld.

Built in 1956 and was supposed to be the first for BOAC, but went to Ghana Airways as 9G-AAH instead. Supposedly BOAC turned their noses up at this one as it had been used extensively as a trials aircraft. Later to British Eagle as a Britannia 319 then scrapped at Baginton (EGBE) in October 1971.

To MASDC in 1974 then registered N90447 to a private individual, but no service history found. If the N# sounds familiar it is because it was used on E-3 Sentry LX-N90447.

Built in 1957 and imported in 1959 ex N2512C. Before Cessna developed the Model 172, an engineering company called Met-Co-Aire of Fullerton/CA came up with this after-market tricycle gear modification for the 170. Note how much farther forward the landing gear is positioned compared to the 172. Eventually it was de-modified back to taildragger as here where you can see the blanking plate covering the old main gear location.

First registered in May 1960 and here still with DH in bare metal so possibly on delivery ferry as it was cancelled on export to the USA on 22 May 1961. It was N20R by 1974 with the astrodome gone so was it just used for trans-ocean delivery?

It was the first Westland-Sikorsky S-51 and registered in 1948 as G-AKTW. In 1953 it became the first Westland Dragonfly 1A for the RAF as XD649. After evaluation it was restored to civil and became the type/version as above. In 1958 the registration was changed to G-APPR with Bristow Helicopters and here on lease or for demo purposes with BUA. In 1962 it was exported as 5N-ABV and reportedly destroyed during the Biafra War.

Others sources claim this was the prototype which made its first flight on 8 June 1959, however the c/n and registration seem wrong for that. Perhaps it had been re-identified since then?
