Although there is no formal work program, conservation and restoration of aircraft, engines and other artifacts at the Combat Air Museum continues on several projects. Volunteers have undertaken to adopt projects and the results of past efforts can be seen throughout the two hangars. |
  The markings on this Republic F-84 have recently been restored to the original markings of the 389th Fighter Bomber Squadron (part of the 366th Fighter Bomber Wing at Alexandria AFB, Louisiana) |
 Work continues on repainting and restoring the fuselage and tail portions of the North American F86H-10-NH Sabre |
   Museum volunteers recovered this Vultee BT-13 aircraft from a farm near Colby, Kansas in 1988 |
   This helicopter is a Korean War era Hiller UH-12A (civilian designation), used for casualty evacuation and general utility. It will be restored as an US Army H-23 Raven. |
  The Messerschmitt Bf 109G-10 "mockup project" is a full-scale fibre glass WWII German fighter type produced late in 1944 |
