Seeking 801 Squadron Sea Fury Photo's

Hello all,
I’m researching New Zealand Sea Fury pilot Cedric MacPherson for a scale model project. He was flying Sea Fury WH620 on a strafing mission against an ammunition dump on 11 February 1953 when he was shot down by ground fire. I’ve found this undated photograph online of the aircraft but that’s it.

Are there any other photographs of WH620 out there, or of other 801 Squadron machines from February 1953 so I can speculate at its appearance then? I’d appreciate any advice or images.

Thanks in advance.

Hi ARMY,
Good timing as I’ve just started up research again leading up to the release of Airfix’s 1/48 Sea Fury kit. I’ve not found much at all unfortunately.

Hi K5054NZ, I’m doing some research on Cedric and I’m interested to know if you found any more information on him or the WH620 aircraft? Or any photos of your scale model if you completed it?
