Hi All, Guido Zuccoli imported 2 Baghdad Furies & 1 genuine Sea Fury into Aust, also arriving in the same shipment was another Fury for his friend Rob Poynton of Perth W.A.
Rob restored this Fury in Iraqi colours until its sale to FASTaero in Belgium, Guido’s favourite was restored as an FB11 308/K wearing the RAN colours from the Korean war, the Furies were restored as 253/K wearing Aussie colours but with a “no hook” tail section and fixed wings, and 115/NW which has recently been sold to France. 115 has the hook tail section but no folding wings as the folding equipment is difficult to acquire. It will be fantastic to see Frederic complete the Fury in Belgium & fly it in original colours,cheers,Pete
