The North Dakota Air National Guard would retire the F-4 Phantoms in 1990 and replace them with F-16s. This one was withdrawn and stored at AMARC in May 1988. It was scrapped in 1997. Converting to F-16s, the 119th Wing changed their mission in 2007 to reconnaissance and airlift, flying the C-21A (Learjet 35A) and MQ-1 Predator.

T-28 51-3590 was sold to Sud Aviation in 1959 and converted to a T-28S Fennec. Serving with the French Air Force, Moroccan Air Force, Nicaraguan National Guard, Fuerza Aérea de Nicaragua and Sandinista Air Force, it was sold and shipped to Canada in 1987. The data plate was missing and replaced by one from T-28 51-7668 (cn 174-521) that had crashed with the USAF in 1953 in order to get the aircraft registered C-FXRD (cn 521). The trainer went to the USA as N521DF in 1995 before coming back to Canada as C-GULI in 2008. It's current at the time of uploading in French Air Force colors.

This Buffalo started out as a CV-7A Buffalo for the US Army with serial 63-13687. Designed as a CV-2 Caribou replacement, it got caught up in an inter service rivalry when the USAF objected to Army large fixed wing transports. The program was taken over by the Air Force and only four test aircraft were delivered. Transferred to the University of Michigan (N325D), it was operated for the National Center for Atmospheric Research. Transferred to NASA in 1975, the aircraft was modified as a Quiet Short-Haul Research Aircraft (QSRA) and was registered as N715NA in 1978 for the program.

The Brazilian Air Force Esquadrilha da Fumaca (Smoke Squadron) performed their first demonstration on May 14, 1952 equipped with North American T-6 Texans. The team received their first Embraer EMB 312 Tucanos in 1983. Tragically, 1305 pictured crashed at Curitiba - Bacacheri (SBBI ) airport on take-off November 2, 1989 after an engine failure. The airport is in a heavily populated suburb and the pilot continued to fly the aircraft to protect those on the ground before ejecting too low to survive. In memory of Captain Idegaldo Coutinho Bacci.

Canada would begin re-equipping with Chinooks again in 2008 for commitments in Afghanistan, the first of which were 1960s aircraft that had been re-manufactured to CH-47D standard.
