Built in 1987 and used until 1991. It has been permanently withdrawn from use but made a tethered inflation as part of the British Balloon Museum and Library collection
This is one of two original 1918 DH-4 that are at Fantasy of Flight, one Military, one Air Mail plane. Both have been substantially rebuilt by Century Aviation. I am not sure which one this is but neither appear to have been re-registered.
This amazing looking aircraft is the G-Aerosports Archon SF/1 designed and built in Greece. Whilst it has the appearance of a fighter it is actually a Rotax powered microlight, a Single Seat Deregulated (SSDR) aircraft. It was at the LAA Rally and was due to fly the following day. The company name on the nose is actually mis-spelled!
The Financial Times had three hot air balloons and all are seen here with G-FIFT in the middle and G-FFTT at the rear. None are airworthy but are part of the British Balloon Museum and Library Collection and they were inflated at the bi-annual inflation day
Seen outside the Technology College at Lakeland, this is an unidentified fuselage. This side displays NY-NG (National Guard perhaps) and the other side a Code of 12
This aircraft is preserved at the Aviation College at Lakeland. Most of its systems remain active except the undercarriage which has been deactivated so it can be started by students as part of their training. It looks great in this Piedmont livery but it is an ex Fedex aircraft
