This Sea Venom was built 1955 but had a rather inauspicious start with 809 NAS at Yeovilton being damaged when a raincoat was ingested into the engine. She was allocated to the Fleet Air Arm Museum in 1969 and has been held in the Reserve Collection at Cobham Hall since 2002.

This Sea Prince was delivered to the FAA in 1953 and served all over the UK from Culdrose to Lossiemouth to Belfast and as far afield as Malta. In 1977 she was placed in storage and has been part of the Fleet Air Arm's Museum Reserve Collection since 1980. I believe (but stand to be corrected) that the aircraft pieces in the foreground are part of the museum's ongoing Barracuda restoration.

Unfortunately this Ohka has no serial but was first noted at the Science Museum in 1963. I would be happy to hear if anyone has more definitive information on its provenance. It is now stored in the Fleet Air Arm's Reserve Collection at Cobham Hall.

This venerable old Sea Vampire has had an eventful service life including being; the first jet aircraft to land on a ship at sea, damaged when undercarriage 'up' was selected on the ground and being damaged during arrester barrier trials at RAE Farnborough. She has certainly earned her retirement on board the FAA Museum's 'aircraft carrier' at Yeovilton.

On my last visit to the Fleet Air Arm Museum this A-109 was on display in Hall 1, whereas now she has been relegated to the Reserve Collection at Cobham Hall. In service, it was assigned to CAB601, the Argentinean Army's Batallon De Aviacion De Combate 601 Ejercito. After the Falklands invasion it served on escort and general transport/cargo missions. After the Argentinian surrender it was transported back to the UK, given the serial ZE411 and used as a support a/c for the SAS.
