thats about the year of my first show – I remember the Hunter well, whats the story on the Sea Fury scheme and codes? Looks RAF to me (painted up as a Fury ?)

The Sea Fury FB11 was owned by Ormond Hayden Ballie and was based along with his T33’s at Dx. It was painted up as a Tempest i seem to recall, and when sold to a German operater i think was written off in a flying accident but is i think still around.

As a small boy i remember OHB landing in this and taxiing up between two of Dx’s Belfast hangers (non airshow day) before shutting down and being swamped by admirers. He was a very popular guy!
