Four skins for Allen's Piper L-4 Grasshopper.

- An L-4 of No. 4 Squadron, Royal Aistralian Air Force based at Nadzab, New Guinea in early 1944

- An L-4 that was used to test the Brodie system for launching and landing light aircraft using an overhead cable and a hook attached to the airplane. The system worked but only in in perfect conditions and wasn't adopted for service use.

- An NE-2 that was transferred from the Army in 1944 or '45 and retained the Army's Olive Drab upper surfaced over neutral gray undersides with dark green splotches along the edges of the flying surfaces, but had the national insignia on the fuselage in the white-only style generally used on Navy aircraft with the overall dark sea blue livery.

- An L-4 that belonged to the 8th Photo Reconnaissance Squadron,based at Dulug, Leyte, P.I. in 1945. The 8th PRS's mission aircraft were the F-5 Lightning and the F-6 Mustang, and the absence of any trace of a serial number from this plane, with the oversized group insignia painted over the data block, suggests that is may have been a "midnight requisition" from a ground unit or a maintenance depot. Or perhaps it was a mash-up of parts from wrecks.
