First flew as G-ARVG in 1963. Delivered to BOAC in 1964. Merged into British Airways then to Gulf Air in 1974. Reregistered as A4O-VG in 1975. Sold to the RAF as ZD141 in 1978 for conversion to a tanker at Filton. First flight after conversion in 1982 and delivered to the RAF in 1984. Withdrawn from use at St.Athan in 1999 and scrapped in 2001.

This former BOAC VC10 (G-ARVG) started airline service in June 1964 after six months of crew training as the type was introduced. After BOAC merged with British European Airways to form British Airways, this aircraft was leased, then sold to Gulf Air (A4O-VG) in June 1974. Retired in 1977, it was among nine airline VC 10s the RAF bought in 1978 for tanker conversion. ZA141 was the first tanker to fly in June 1982 and is pictured after recent painting in the new Hemp color scheme - what a sight and what a sound. Retired in 1999, it was scrapped at St. Athan in 2001.

Delivered to the RAF as XS732 in 1966. Dismantled at Finningley in 1991, fuselage to Fort Halstead, Kent. Moved to Manston Fire School in 1997 and burnt in 1998.

This F.1 was built ny Clayton and Shuttleworth in Lincoln and is one of only 5 original examples that have survived. From March 30, 1918, it entered into service and desroyed a total of 11 enemy planes (making it possibly the highest scoring WWI plane still extant). In September, 1918, it was forced down intact behind German lines and captured. The plane then became part of Hermann Göring's pre-WWII collection that formed the Deutsche Luftfahrtsammlung (German Collection of Aircraft). These were evacuated east in 1943 to avoid Allied bombing and eventually became part of this wonderful museum.

With this fighter, the most famous British type of WW1, eleven German planes were downed by two different pilots. After an emergency landing at the front, it was tested by the Germans and made part of Göring's Deutsche Luftfahrtsammlung. The collection was moved to Poland after coming under air attack in Berlin in 1943.
