Here, this VS-71 Tracker has remained mercifully free of the dreaded Spraylat. She was one of those with a new career ahead. Having arrived at DM in 12.74, she went on to the Venezuelan Navy in 5.81 as AS-108, the last of eight supplied (6 in 1975, 2 in 1981). They were replaced by ASW version of the C.212 and put into store at naval air base Puerto Cabello.

Among the many interesting airframes displayed by the Fuerza Aerea Colombiana outside their CATAM base at El Dorado is this rare Junkers W34. Although large numbers were built from 1926 as a development of the W33, only three survive world-wide, the other two in Sweden and Canada; 12 were once operated by the FAC, serving in the Colombia-Peru War of 1932-33

This was one of many tricycle undercarriage developments. Established in 1971, Panorama Air Tour offered sightseeing services around the Hawaiian Islands, mainly covering Oahu, Kauai, Lanai and Molokai

First flying in 1937, there were 32 main variants of the Beechcraft model 18; it is the most modified US-certified aircraft design ever with over 200 FAA-approved Supplemental Type Certificates. This was one of many tricycle undercarriage developments. Established in 1971, Panorama Air Tour offered sightseeing services around the Hawaiian Islands, mainly covering Oahu, Kauai, Lanai and Molokai

An extraordinary machine by any standard. In 1967, China attempted to develop its first AEW platform based on the Tu-4 airframe with AI-20 turboprop engines. The project was named KJ-1, with a Type 843 rotor-dome on top. However, the equipment was too heavy and failed to meet PLAAF requirements so the project was cancelled in 1971

By the same token as IL-62 5A-DNY is an odd aircraft to use as a freighter, this is an odd one to use for passengers. Ready to go with a full load of Libyans bound for the central oasis town of Sebha, the debris visible is the result of them sitting on the tarmac around the aircraft for hours before departure - no sense of FOD here!
