Comment: I doubt if it needs a separate article. There are already incomplete sections on related pages, such as List of preserved Airbus aircraft, List of preserved Boeing aircraft. Content from here could be merged in their maker's respective lists instead. X (talk) 16:22, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
Comment: Notable and very well referenced. I would highly recommend this gets moved to Mainspace so anyone can make edits to this and add additional aircraft to this list. 194.223.31.30 (talk) 01:11, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
