Four "Emily" flying-boats of the 167 built for the Imperial Japanese Navy for maritime patrol, reconnaissance, bombing, and transport duities survived until the end of WWII. This one was captured by US forces in 1945 and was evaluated at the Naval Air Test Center, Patuxent River, MD in 1946/47, eventually being returned to Japan in 1979. It was on display at Tokyo's Museum of Maritime Science until 2004, when it was moved to Kanoya. A very special exhibit indeed!

Of the 112 examples of the Vautour (Vulture) which served the Armée de l'Air between 1958 and 1979, 63 were the IIN two-seat, all-weather interceptor. This one is fitted with Mirage 2000 nose for testbed with CEV. Must be my favourite exhibit in this extraordinary collection

When Yugoslavia under Tito fell out with the USSR in 1948, Soviet military supplies were denied so the need for an interim fighter-bomber of indigenous design came about. The result was the Ikarus S-49, based on Yugoslavia's pre-war IK-3, but developed by 1952 into an all-metal machine powered by a Hispano-Suiza engine from France. Although fairly soon superseded by modern US jets, 112 S-49Cs were built by Ikarus and Soko by 1954 and served till 1961. This is the only surviving example in the world
