  • Steve Hinton flies Bob Pond’s newly-restored Bell P-63A Kingcobra 42-68864/NX163BP over Chino, California, on December 8, 1992. Restored by Fighter Rebuilders, the P-63 was obtained after the war by World War One ace Elliot White Springs and placed in a park where an annual coat of paint protected it from the weather.

  • Florida-based collector Kermit Weeks snapped up Ford Trimotor N9651 at auction for $650,000 (£435,000) in November 1992.
