Originally delivered to VASP as PP-SRF in 12.58, this beauty was bought by PLUNA in 11.75 and was preserved airside at one end of the terminal at MVD after withdrawal from service. Later moved and abandoned in another spot away from the terminal; condition increasingly poor but now fortunately saved by the Uruguayan Museum of Aeronautics for restoration in original colours. The livery seen here was current on B737s when the aircraft was put on display, but too late to actually have been carried by Viscounts in service

Here with 79 Shadow Sqdn/229 OCU (1 TWU), this 1956-build Hunter was rebuilt to FGA.9 (F6A) standard by HSA and exported to Kenya in 6.74 as an FGA.80 where it joined the Air Force with serial 803. After sale to the Zimbabwe AF as 8100, it was one of eight Hunters caught in a terrorist attack at Thornhill AB on 25.7.82

Sadly this Belfast was broken up at Southend on 23/24.10.08 after plans to put it back in service alongside sister-ship RP-C8020 (ex G-HLFT) down-under fell through. Seen here with PANAF titles (company wanted to buy all 10 Belfasts but never got going) prior to civilianisation for TAC/Heavylift, G-BEPS was ferried MSE-SEN on 30.3.01 for storage. This was to be the former XR368's last flight

The Control Configured Vehicle test NB-52E was fitted with three canard control surfaces (two horizontal and one ventral) which were linked to computers receiving flight data from sensors mounted throughout the aircraft monitoring turbulence, which fed back compensatory control inputs. Although here on 'Celebrity Row' next to the prototype for the Boeing 707, she was scrapped in 10.93
