Royal Navy Historic Flight update 1 Jun 08

She didn’t make it to Cosford, unfortunately. But it was nice to see the Sea Hawk flying again.

unfortunately she’s not the daughter of a rich saudi oil baron!!!

well at least there are plans to but a spare. 3 centarus engines must be a challenge to maintain for sure!!

i wonder if there are plans for the sea fury, seafire, swordfish, wildcat, tfc corsair, skyraider and shuttleworth sea hurricane to do a navy tribute at some point this year? there was something similar at one of the shuttleworth displays last year was there not?

Perhaps the outlaws could arrange it for your wedding!!!!

Sad to see that the engine from the single seater has to be sent to the US for a rebuild.

re

dont understand the registration. is she gonna be flight tested on the civvie register and then switch to RNHF and hence Navy ownership, or staying on the civvie register? Not that it makes much difference!

Great news on the two-seater flying! 🙂

Sea Fury T.20….. Very Well Done !!

Just read the RNHF update,its great to see the 2 seater flying again,very well done to all involved with the reassembly and testing programme.

I’m sure I speak for many in wishing the Flight the very best of luck with all their aircraft in the future,
