On ferry to Seville for maintenance. Passed through Luqa on delivery on 15 Jan 2016 (photo ref 699590). Now equipped with large searchlight (?) on underwing pylon.

The RSAF became an A-4 Skyhawk operator in the early 1970's. There are conflicting reports about how many A-4's the RSAF operated in the end, and the US FY # involved are not a 100% clear either. E.g. 912 shown here is reported to have US FY # 144966 (cn 12212) or 144972 (cn 12218). It started life as a single seat A-4B in 1959, and inserting a 28 inch fuselage "plug" modification made it a dual seat trainer at some point, resulting in the odd looking two bubble canopy unique to the ~20 RSAF TA-4's. The TA-4SU designation came after an upgrade carried out by ST Aerospace in the mid 1980's.

On delivery to Oman.

The first Stranraer for No 4 Squadron here at Jericho Beach in Vancouver, delivered to the unit in July 1939. Canadian-built Stranraers served with the RCAF throughout WWII. One is preserved at Hendon in London. Photo from: City of Vancouver Archives

This was photographed in a storage area and comprised the fuselage of a former Thai Navy S-58T, amalgamated with the tail section of a former Uruquayan Navy CH-34J Choctaw, serial number 064. Behind it sat another unidentified S-58 which wore US Marines titles.

This is the single-seat, improved fighter version of the Fagot and is one in a long line of impressive Soviet fast-jets at the super RepTár Szolnoki Repülőmúzeum.

A classic MiG in the rather nice museum at Szolnok.
