In 1952, a program to convert single-engine Navions into twin-engine aircraft was started by Jack Riley of Florida, later well known for re-engining DH Herons. This consisted of rebuilding the nose into a baggage compartment and installing two Lycomings on the wings. The program was eventually sold to the TEMCO Aircraft Corporation in Texas. Later modifications by TEMCO added more powerful engines and wing tip fuel tanks. Just over 100 Navions were converted between 1954 and 1957

In an impressive line of six Harrier variants. Operating with 233 OCU, ZD353 was badly damaged in an inflight fire that resulted in an emergency landing at RAF Wittering in July 1991. The aircraft was considered too badly damaged to be fully repaired, so the airframe was used for ground instructional purposes at BAe Brough.

Intended as a tactical transport for rough, short fields when introduced in 1948, the USAF soon found that it needs were well enough met by the C-123 and helicopters so only 23 C-125s were built. Most, this one included, went directly from the factory to technical schools for use as non-flying ground trainers and were sold to a Florida trader in the mid-1950s, several finding their way on to Latin America. Pima's example was originally 48-636 becoming N2753B and then XB-GEY when sold to Triplay y Maderas de Durango SA of Mexico in 1956. It was grounded in 1960 for lack of spares.

Just three prototype Columbia XJL-1 amphibians were manufactured in 1946 as proposed Grumman Duck replacements for the US Navy, Grumman contracting the work out as it was too busy with fighters for the USN to build the design. This one was allocated Bu Aer 31400. However it did not live up to expectations with several structural failures occurring, and testing at Patuxent River was abandoned. Sold in 1959 as N54205, it was flown from Philadelphia Navy Yard to Tucson in 1961. Although re-engined with a Wright R-2600, it was abandoned at Tucson Airport for decades till rescued by Pima.

Just three prototype Columbia XJL-1 amphibians were manufactured in 1946 as proposed Grumman Duck replacements for the US Navy, Grumman contracting the work out as it was too busy with fighters for the USN to build the design. This one was allocated Bu Aer 31400. However it did not live up to expectations with several structural failures occurring, and testing at Patuxent River was abandoned. Sold in 1959 as N54205, it was flown from Philadelphia Navy Yard to Tucson in 1961. Although re-engined with a Wright R-2600, it was abandoned at Tucson Airport for decades till rescued by Pima.

In 1990 a total of 10 Spartans were purchased as short-range cargo aircraft to support the US Army's Special Forces and were based at Howard AFB in Panama. Changes in priorities resulted in them being retired the aircraft in 1999. Several of them were taken over by the US Department of State and used to support foreign nations in their anti-drug operations, this one being latterly based at Patrick AFB, FL. The aircraft were retired again in 2013 and placed in storage at Davis Monthan.

Great to see three aerobatic team aircraft together that are in genuine colours. Positioned with a Blue Angels F-11 Tiger and a Thunderbirds F-4, this Hawk joined the collection in 2020 and had flown with the Red Arrows from around 1999 until placed into storage at RAF Shawbury in 2009. In 2017 it was moved to Bentwaters.

This P-51 has been constructed from a combination of original parts of various Mustangs and newly manufactured parts. Approximately 60% of the aircraft comprises original North American Aviation built parts, most apparently from 44-63272. The paint scheme is that of an aircraft with the 3rd Air Commando Group in the Philippines in 1945

The Bristol Blenheim Mk. IV built in Canada by Fairchild was called the Bolingbroke, used for coastal patrol and training. This aircraft is actually 10076, delivered to the R Canadian AF in January 1943 and declared surplus in 1946. It was acquired from storage on a farm in Canada by the Military Aircraft Restoration Corp in 1972 and moved to Chino, CA. In 2004 it was moved to Pima for restoration and display as a Bolingbroke of RCAF 115 Sqdn, Annette Island, Alaska in 1942

Effectively a French-built Fieseler Storch, this MS-500 is thought to have been built in 1947, first serving the French AF in Vietnam and later being registered as F-BJQH. It became N42FS on import to the US by the Military Aircraft Restoration Corp in 1975 and is now on show to represent a Storch flown by the Italian Regia Aeronautica in North Africa in 1940

This was a composite restoration with apparently 5662 providing the basis of the restoration with components contributed from five other airframe hulks also obtained from Canada. In 2006 it was loaned to the Pima museum and exhibited as 257 Sqdn Hurricane Mk.I V6864 'DT-A', flown by Battle of Britain ace Robert Stanford Tuck. Then it was repainted again to represent a 33 Sqdn Mk.II with the addition of a tropical chin radiator as operated in North Africa in 1942, being placed back on display in 2020
