每架退役飛機都是航空史的一部分，將退役飛機妥善的保存與利用，將能留下歷史與人民的共同記憶。鑑於臺灣的退役飛機保存與利用存有極大的改進空間，本文以現在保存展示於國立科學工藝博物館開放式典藏庫的「 IDF全尺寸木質實體模型」為例，先簡述各國重要航空博物館保存與利用退役飛機的實務作為，再敘述該木質實體模型的歷史、保存過程及其在科工館大廳與開放式典藏庫的展示與相關活動規劃，最後就退役飛機的保存與利用提出建議。

Every retired aircraft is one part of the history of aviation. A better preservation and use of retired aircrafts would be able for people to keep their collective memory. There is room for improvement in the preservation and use of retired aircrafts in Taiwan. As a result, we take the IDF full-scale wooden mock-up, which is stored and exhibited in the National Science and Technology Museum (NSTM), as an example. We first introduce practices of preservation and use of aircrafts in important aviation museums in the world as a background. We then illustrate the history, preservation, exhibition, and activities of the IDF full-scale wooden mock-up in the NSTM. Some suggestions for preservation and use of retired aircrafts in Taiwan are made.
