Survivors
P-36A (s/n 38-001, the first P-36 to be delivered to the Air Corps) is on display at the National Museum of the United States Air Force in Dayton, Ohio. It is displayed in the markings of the P-36A flown by Lt. Phil Rasmussen during the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.
A complete and restored Hawk 75N survives in the Royal Thai Air Force Museum; unknown serial number.
A French H75C-1, has been restored to flying condition and is owned by The Fighter Collection at Duxford, United Kingdom. It has been flown and is shown in French camouflage with markings on either side, for the same example (n°82) at two different periods in its career.
A Hawk 75A-6, a Finnish aircraft, was being restored in New Zealand but that effort purportedly has been on hold; a photograph at the Preserved Axis Aircraft website, however, shows it with the German markings on the tail.

Famous quotes containing the word survivors:
“I want to celebrate these elms which have been spared by the plague, these survivors of a once flourishing tribe commemorated by all the Elm Streets in America. But to celebrate them is to be silent about the people who sit and sleep underneath them, the homeless poor who are hauled away by the city like trash, except it has no place to dump them. To speak of one thing is to suppress another.”
—Lisel Mueller (b. 1924)
“I believe that all the survivors are mad. One time or another their madness will explode. You cannot absorb that much madness and not be influenced by it. That is why the children of survivors are so tragic. I see them in school. They don’t know how to handle their parents. They see that their parents are traumatized: they scream and don’t react normally.”
—Elie Wiesel (b. 1928)
