Information on Specific USAF aircraft

 

Individual Aircraft Record Cards 

The AFHSD and the AFHRA maintain individual aircraft record cards for almost all aircraft once or presently in the United States Air Force inventory. The records for many aircraft of the early 1920s and for aircraft in highly sensitive reconnaissance programs are not available. Each set of aircraft records has its own unique characteristics, but for most planes one may learn the manufacturer, place of production, date of entry into the inventory, units of assignment, duty stations, and something of the final disposition.

The Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum Archives Division also maintains aircraft history cards.

Aircraft Accident Reports are also available through 1955.
