Hi all,
Ive not been on here for a long while,
but would anyone have a RR Nene Engine plate , as I have looked online and cannot find a picture of one, or cannot remember ever seeing one,
later in the year it is proposed to recover a Sea hawk FGA6 which crashed near me in 1962,
Ive been looking into the RR Nene engine, and would like to know what the engine plate looks like, It is hoped that the remains of this fighter will be placed in a museum as near to the crash site as possible .it is expected to find 70% of this aircraft when it is recovered, a Licence has been granted.
also i would like to add, NO fatalities were involved in this crash.
but sadly the pilot died not long after this incident when the aircraft he was flying disapeared over the English channel .
