Not sure how many guns were on the Me 262B-1 but the Me 262A-2a (bomber version) only had 2 30mm cannons.

Junkers 290 "Alles Kaput", 
Ju88 flown by Fred Borsadi of the 79th FG to the US, now in the USAF Museum
Spitfire VII EN474 now at NASM
HS129  No idea what happened to that one
He111 same thing
Me410 that I imagine is the NASM example
Macchi 205?
Nice Jug flyby
B25 flyby
BT-13
AT-6
AT-11
B29 take off

The video keeps stopping for me after that

What an amazing time
There was a B-32 in there too.

I don't see why they scrapped that stuff. Is it like someone said: "yeah, none of this will be historically important in 50 years. Crush it, Dave!"

I met a seafire pilot 10 or so years ago,
he said the saddest thing he saw was all the planes getting pushed over the side of the carrier when returning to UK
they where not allowed to take anything from them either, even the beautifully crafted watches that where in the cockpit he said   ( I think he wanted one)...
such a shame

My bad, that's actually B-1a/U1, one of the four nightfighters (W.Nr 110306, FE-610), the only one that was brought to US. The removed radar aireal threw me off. It was also the only one of those four with MG151/20s as the lower cannons.

It is clearly a two seater and those are 20mm barrels sticking out. MK108 barrels don't portrude outside the fuselage.
