Is this the same machine I shot at Yeovilton in 1994?? Lovely bird.

That one is the ex OFMC Fury.

What Belgian registration this Sea Fury will be registered ?

TFC bought the “front end” of 6-18.

You sure you aren’t getting confused with the new centaurus they have just purchased for holland?

Am I missing something? I thought VH-ISS was going to Vormezeele in Belgium…… The only Sea Fury left in Holland is the static ‘6-43’ at the MLM of Soesterberg..
Or is someone buying me a true Christmas present 😉

re;

how is the ex Yeovilton example getting on? Last time I saw her, she had a notice on her, “hey Rushton, wheres my Centarus?”

A QEC is a good chunk of a Sea Fury, no ? :diablo:

Bentwingbomber, and a fourth soon to arrive, I was told.

Any idea how much the sale price was?

I am glad that ISS has been finally sold so that it may finally fly! I look forward to seeing airborne shots of her at long last.

… which is also for sale, so a possible candidate for departure too.

Yeesss, but as discussed elsewhere, ‘for sale’ does not equate to ‘sold’ as some seem to think.

Numerous Furies have been ‘for sale’ both without it being widely known and in other cases without the owner actually selling.

I’d suggest concentrating on what has / is happening rather than ‘might be’.

I hope the ex-VH-ISS is more widely enjoyed than it has been, and that VH-ORN is also seen about a bit more than it has.

Regards,

We also have VH-ORN as a ‘returnee’.

Another one leaves these shores 🙁

I wouldn’t burst into tears as it was hardly an ‘active’ warbird on the Aussie scene. We also have VH-ORN as a ‘returnee’.
