This is a small collection of pictures I found from around the net of my favorite torpedo bomber of the War.
I simply love this airplane!
German warships troubling you? No problem.

Get the lifeboats ready.
A rather extensive article on the sinking of the Bismarck.

I think there are four, two in the UK and two in Canada. One of the machines based in the latter hasn’t flown for a while though and is on display in a museum.

I thought Stringbag would have replied by now. 🙂
While we’re waiting…
The RNHF have two, and another one being restored at the moment.
I believe the Canadians have one.
That’s all I know of, but there’s plenty here that know more than me.

Stringbag how many Swordfishes are in flyable condition today and who owns them?
I assume the Royal Navy Historical Flight has at least one, but what about the others?

Lovely things!
In a few years you’ll be able to see all three RNHF examples flying together in formation 🙂
