The prototype XP-87 (Curtiss Model 29A) at what may be its rollout at the factory. The aircraft was dismantled and trucked to Muroc (Edwards AFB) for its first flight in March 1948. A USAF order was cancelled when it was decided the Northrop F-89 would be a better all-weather fighter. Thus ended Curtiss as an aircraft manufacturer and it sold its Columbus factory to North American. The Curtiss-Wright X-19 of 1963, was a tiltwing experiment built by the company's propeller division at Caldwell, New Jersey. Photo by: Hans Groenhoff / Smithsonian Institution

Reregistered N21C for the 1948 National Air Races. Continued to be raced until 1960 and remained on the register until 1970. Became part of a bundle of Cosmic Wind aircraft, components and jigs sold in UK in 1992. N21C was registered G-NZIC because it looked vaguely like N21C.

Occupying a large space in the center of the cavernous hangar, this B-52D is on display at the start of the Southeast Asia War Gallery at the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force. While targeting SAM sites near Vinh on April 9, 1972, a SA-2 missile exploded near the left wing of AQUA 2 flown by Capt. Ken Curry of the 307th SW. The B-52 was damaged extensively, causing fuel leaks. It was flown to Da Nang where it made an emergency landing. All crew members were awarded the DFC. After being repaired, the aircraft flew four more missions over North Vietnam.
