Most of the helicopters in this hangar are too tight for a proper photo but fortunately this beautifully presented Whirlwind is well positioned at the end of the row. Four of these Westland-built machines were flown alongside about 20 Sikorsky H-19s with the Air Force and Navy

The Albatross which forms part of the superb outdoor collection at the Museo del Aire has recently been moved into a slightly better position for photos, possibly as a result of the Do 24 going indoors for restoration. Still carrying the former US serial, she served Esc 55/801 in the SAR role from Son San Joan airbase, Palma de Majorca. A total of 28 HU-16s were operated by the Spanish from 1954 to 1978

This is as good a shot as it's possible to get of this nice exhibit, thanks to the wing of the adjacent Caribou. Originally 42-72261 and one of 17 Skymasters operated by the Spanish AF; 15 were still in use till 1976

After many years slowly deteriorating outside, this important exhibit is seen here undergoing restoration. In 1944 twelve Dutch-built Do 24s were delivered to Spain on the understanding they would be used to aid downed airmen of both sides. They operated till 1969; among the survivors, one example now flies as the turboprop-powered Do 24 ATT conversion. The aircraft in this photo is often quoted as cn 5341, but that is only its fuselage number. In fact it is Dornier Werknummer 3406.

This was one of the early He 111 stepped-cockpit variants and was operated by Spain's Condor Legion in the 1938 Civil War. About 60 surviving He 111s joined the Spanish AF after this conflict, with another six during WW2. Of course Spain later went on to licence-build the type as the CASA 2.111 which served till as late as 1975, one example being preserved next to this Heinkel

The history of this aircraft is unclear but it is certainly not a genuine Spanish air force Storch. The reported construction number belongs to a French-built MS.500, registered F-BBAS between 1959 and 1966. The Museo del Aire says that it is a Fi 156A obtained from the Autotechnik Museum in Germany. Other sources say it is a Fi 156C-2, with Scramble adding it is a composite airframe, and the c/n is given by others as 2027/2.
