Paul Morgan’s Sea Fury overturned tragically killing him about 10 years ago. I believe the aircraft is under restoration in Sweden.
12th of May 2001:( Still very much missed 🙁
Maybe see you there – a year ago I missed the premiere of something else I starred in, so would be bad form for me to miss another!
Starred in eh:rolleyes: Must get your autograph when i see you next:D
It is a beutifull machine, it was for sale a while back,. obviously he didnt sell it:)
I really wasn’t ripping it…just nitpicking their word choice in their news release.:D:D:D
Well thats PR press releases for you:D
Looking fwd to seeing how this one has turned out, had great fun playing the “Baron” himself in Paul and Sarah Fords Triplane.
Going to the pre screening next Wednesday so should be able to let you know how good it is!
J Boyle, apart from flying modern replica’s they also went and did some flying down at OW;) Lets not start ripping it to bits before its even been seen:rolleyes:
Its an RAF BE2c or possibly an e looking at the shape of the fin 🙂
Edge looks very nice. As for the Boredom Fighter, looks like the result of a one night stand between a Spad and a Pitts 😮
Or give Vintage Engine Tech a ring on 00 44 1767 651794.
If we used washable paint up here we would need to respray 3 times a day!!
Having used water washable paint several times in the past it dont come of that easy ! be warned:eek:
I see that Steve Nujaim has postponed his long planed attemt due to fuel supply problems!
Banner towing training courses are available in the UK, it is a skill, which of course applies to many variations of aircraft use.
A shame that the last flying Wilga in the UK is no more and a relief that the crew escaped.
Is it really, what happened to the one at Sywell that i flew last week then????:rolleyes:
GrahamF, have you flown a Wilga?? have you carried out banner towing with it or anything else?? Banner towing is regulated as any other activity, the pilot and A/C also. Maybe because of that regulation two people are in hospital recovering from what has been discribed as non life threatening injury’s rather than lying in the morg!
It sounds like you are making broad sweeping statements about things you have little knowledge of.
Have you seen how they are built?? somthing else and they may not have walked away!!
David Gilmour still has SNJ and Stearman, i dont think they fly that much.
His band mate Nick Mason has a P18 Super Cub and an L4 Cub, L4 is currently on rebuild at Sywell;) He also has a Robin Major and a Squirell Helicopter.
I belive Joe Pasquale has sold the Yak 52.
Port, at least i did the other day!!:)
