Hi guys
I know lee Howard often posts on the forum, but does anybody know what’s happening with the sea fury?? I see it’s only down as Static at the yeovilton air day??? It’s been nearly a year since the engine has been fitted.
Hopefully just a paperwork issue, but would be nice to see it back on the circuit.
Also, does the RNHF site not get updated any more???
Cheers

Mark,
The website is currently in the process of being migrated to the Royal Navy web to integrate with the other pages there. This is due to take complete shortly and there will be an announcement on the current site to that effect once it has happened.
It’s been a very busy winter period with lots of things happening behind the scenes. Watch out for a certain magazine soon for further info!
The FB.11 progresses. As you say, it’s been over a year since those first engine runs, but there have inevitably been some shake-down engine runs needed – it was, after all, a complete engine rebuild – 2013 was an incredibly busy season what with the 70th anniversary of the BoA and the commitments of the other aircraft, and also she’s had some special mods fitted which have taken time to sort out as they’ve never been fitted to a Sea Fury before.
Keep a look out for that new website….and a ‘certain’ magazine! 😉
All the best
Lee
Thanks Lee – most appreciated!!

All the best for the 2014 season
