Built in 1929 as the Curtiss Long-Distance Hawk I demonstrator, a variant of the P-6E fighter, and registered NR636E. Rebuilt after a crash as the Hawk IA and delivered to aerobatic pilot Al Williams as NR982V in August 1930. Named Gulfhawk and painted orange when Williams was contracted by Gulf Oil in 1933. Replaced by the Grumman G-22 Gulfhawk II in 1936. Restored from 1958-62 and subsequently flown by Hollywood stunt pilot Frank Tallman. Donated to the NASM in 1969.

SPAD was better known for its single-seat fighters, and the two-seat S.XI/S.XVI served without distinction as a reconnaissance aircraft. Six S.XVIs were supplied to the Americans, and this particular one was flown by Lt Col Billy Mitchell during the Battle of Château-Thierry in July 1918.

Many years ago while "Enola Gay" was still dismantled and in store at the Silver Hill facility, I once had the eerie experience of being able to go on board and sit in the bombadier's seat. Of course this is the Superfortress which dropped the world's first atomic bomb used in warfare on Hiroshima on 6.8.45

Designed with folding wings and tail surfaces to be catapulted from submarines and used to attack the USA mainland, the first mission with Seirans on board was at sea when Japan surrendered. To shorten the launching process, they were to be catapulted from a cold start by heating the engine oil to 60°C in a separate chamber and pumping it through the engine just before launch, along with hot water. This is the only survivor of 28 built

Designed with folding wings and tail surfaces to be catapulted from submarines and used to attack the USA mainland, the first mission with Seirans on board was at sea when Japan surrendered. To shorten the launching process, they were to be catapulted from a cold start by heating the engine oil to 60°C in a separate chamber and pumping it through the engine just before launch, along with hot water. This is the only survivor of 28 built

First flown in 10.43, the push-pull "Arrow" was the fastest production piston fighter of WWII, capable of 472mph at 21,000ft. This sole remaining example of 37 built was taken to the USA for evaluation after the war. Ferried from Oberwiesenfeld to Cherbourg escorted by two P-51s, the Do 335 was easily able to out-pace the escorts and arrived 45 minutes ahead. When returned to Dornier for restoration in 1974, explosive charges to blow off the tail and rear propeller in emergency were found still intact

This exceptional exhibit is the only remaining example of the world's first operational jet-powered bomber. Although some 210 were built in the late stages of WWII, few entered service; those that did proved almost impossible to intercept. Behind is the similarly extraordinary Dornier 335

After wins in the Bendix Trophy air races of 1946 and 1947 for Paul Mantz in this Mustang while named "Stormy Petrel", Charles F Blair flew 3,478 miles non-stop from New York to London on 31.1.51 in the renamed "Excalibur III" at an average speed of 446mph in 7hr 48m, a record for a piston-engined aircraft. Four months later he flew 3,260 miles across the North Pole from Bardufoss, Norway to Fairbanks, AK. For many years a large scale model of the aircraft was displayed at Heathrow Airport
