You’re right… I was referring to Peter’s Mk22 comment. If it were a seafire wing of course, there’d be a second fold near the end as well, wouldn’t there? Or was that deleted on later mark seafires?
Cheers,
Richard
Err no. Not on the twenty series wing planform. 🙂

That would be my guess, they are not clean enough to be from WG655. As to which way they are going, I dont know, did the outer wings arrive along with the rest of airframe earlier in the year ?
This old picture from the blog shows the wings from VZ345 behind WG655,
i remember they were still there during the legends show

Not on most Seafires they don’t.

perhaps we might find out on Sunday ! remember it’s Spitfire day, wishing for blue skies and plenty of Spits – see you all there ??

Wings are way too short for a spit… as they go right to the fuselage, don’t they?

Ah! The old dummy gun bay trick.

Shocking.

Are you sure they are not Spitfire 22? 😉
Mark
You old tease! Wings are way too short for a spit… as they go right to the fuselage, don’t they? Surely the outer wing panels from a sea fury.

Will it fly at Legends?
Oh wait never mind;)
But is there any news on the TFC/CAA paperwork issue?

A good call Mark12!
It also crossed my mind that they might be from the Spit Mk22.
Exciting stuff whatever the outcome!

Thought some of his fleet were grounded while the CAA go through them with a fine comb..

Mr. Gray sending the Sea Fury back to the States, ‘cos he doesn’t like it ?????
No doubt all will be revealed in due course….. are you sure it’s not a tease ? – there are a few jokers amongst the FC people.
