Oh and a HUGE pot of cash – now that WOULD be nice:D

That would be completely historically inaccurate for the Fleet Air Arm I’m afraid. I think you must be thinking of the USN.

…. and a Barracuda and a SeaMew….

I’ll get me coat:D

It wouldn’t be proper to forget the Vought Chesapeake, Blackburn Firebrand, Avro Bison, Fairey Fawn, Firefly AS.7, Supermarine Scimitar and any of the multitude of other highly attractive and effective machines that the RN has been saddled with, sorry, benefited from throughout the ages.

…And I got right to the end of an RN themed post without mentioning Skuas or Rocs! 😀 Oh.

Excellent news!

Tell you what, that Seafire 17 would make a fine addition to the RNHF!

Just a Sea Hornet F20 to find then…

The supply of sufficient numbers of cartridges has never been a problem.
