Correct serial is XN962. This aircraft was delivered to the Royal Navy during July 1964 and served at Lossiemouth until 1970. Thereafter she was transferred to St. Athan and allocated the Maintenance serial 8181M before being moved to PEE (Proof & Experimental Establishment) at Foulness 1986. Unfortunately the axeman came calling and she was broken up in 1992, although the nose section has at least survived and is now on display at Cosford.

The Argus operated in RAF service in the unsung but vital liason, communication and ferry roles. This particular aircraft served during WWII with the US 8th AF but was civilianised in 1947 as G-AIZE. She is painted to represent an aircraft operating in the South East Asia Command after arriving at Cosford during 1999.

The SR.53 was a point defence interceptor with a rocket motor as its main propulsion and a small Viper jet engine for getting home. It did not fly until 1957 when the concept was already outdated.

This is the twin turboshaft engined version of the Wessex resulting in the increased lift performance required by the RAF. This aircraft served from 1964 to 2002 with the RAF and arrived at Cosford during 2004 for display.

Apparently already designated a Jet Provost T.1, this is the prototype JP, first.flown in 1954. The batch of T.1 evaluation aircraft had this stalky landing gear, very different from the end product.

The FD-2 was Fairey's attempt to investigate flight and control characteristics of the delta-wing design at trans and supersonic speeds. This aircraft's sister plane (WG774) broke the world speed record in 1956 by more than 300 mph, quite an achievement considering the record had been set only a year previously by a F-100.

The Ohka (Cherry Blossom) was a purpose-built, rocket-powered kamikaze plane. Its short range made its missions almost as deadly for the crews of the launching G4M2 'Betty' bombers as for the suicide pilots themselves, but a few US ships were sunk or damaged by Ohka attacks in the spring of 1945. This machine was coded I-13 on the nose when it was captured on Okinawa. It carries the number 10461 on the wing root which I presume is the serial number.

This research aircraft was built to test the slow speed handling of a sharply swept wing as used on the English Electric Lightning. The wing could be mounted at 50, 60 or 69 degrees of sweep and the tail section with low-set tailplane seen here could be replaced with a T-tail. The undercarriage was not retractable.

The M.1 fighter was an advanced aircraft when it first flew in 1916. Due to wariness about its monoplane configuration and landing speed, it was built in limited numbers and only saw some frontline service in the Middle East and Balkans theatres of WWI. This replica made a few flights in 1987. It was then acquired by the RAF Museum, given an original Le Rhône engine and painted as an aircraft of an instructor flying school of the RFC, C4994.

Allocated British serial ZF580, this Ligthning served in the Saudi air force as 53-672. For the RAF's centenary celebrations it was repainted as the RAF's XR768, an F.Mk.6. The real XR768 (c/n 95233) crashed into the North Sea off Lincolnshire on 29 October 197.

Allocated British serial ZF580, this Ligthning served in the Saudi air force as 53-672. For the RAF's centenary celebrations it was repainted as the RAF's XR768, an F.Mk.6. The real XR768 (c/n 95233) crashed into the North Sea off Lincolnshire on 29 October 197.

Developed from the Lancaster, the Lincoln bomber came too late to see action in WWII. 600 examples were built, but it was visibly unfit for the jet age.

The TSR-2 exemplifies one of the saddest episodes in the long history of British aviation, leading to this famous quote from renowned aircraft designer Sir Sydney Camm "All modern aircraft have four dimensions: span, length, height and politics. TSR-2 simply got the first three right." This aircraft never actually flew, rather had almost been completed when the programme was cancelled. One of the absolute highlights of the wonderful RAF museum at Cosford.

When the dust of WWII settled, this was one of only two surviving Junkers Ju 88s. Note the familiar BMW logo on the BMW 801 engines, and the antenna forest on the nose of this early Ju-88R night fighter. It was flown to RAF Dyce in Scotland on 9 May 1943 by its defecting pilots, who were probably British agents. The capture of its Lichtenstein radar was of great interest to Allied intelligence.

This aircraft was built in 1967 as the tactical transport C.1 version but converted to E.3A standard in 1976 for calibration duties, hence the high-vis scheme. Her last flight was in July 94 when she arrived at Cosford for display at the RAF Museum.

The Germans made some extremely innovative and ground-breaking aeroplanes during WWII. The superfast designs have certainly deserved a lot of the limelight and whilst the superslow and nimble Storch doesn't have the glamour of the Schwalbe it fully deserves a place in the German aviation roll of honour!

One of the newest exhibits to join the wonderful RAF Museum at Cosford. Note the 51 Sqn red goose aft of the flightdeck and the RAF Wyton crest on the tail (the port side has the equivalent crest from RAF Waddington). Alas, a museum attendant wouldn't let me move the cones.
